About registered complementary medicines
Registered complementary medicines are non-prescription medicines that are higher risk than listed complementary medicines. This is because of the ingredients they contain or the indications they make.
Registered complementary medicines can include ingredients such as herbal substances, vitamins, minerals or fish oils.
An example is product containing ferrous sulfate which makes a high-level health claim to prevent and treat iron deficiency anaemia.
These medicines are registered in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG). We thoroughly assess them for safety, quality and efficacy before they reach the market.
You are responsible for meeting all legislative requirements for their continued legal supply.
You must meet certain obligations to legally supply therapeutic goods in Australia. This section contains guidance and information specific to registered complementary medicines. You may also have to meet obligations that apply to all medicines and all products.
