Proposed changes to Required Advisory Statements for Medicine Labels (RASML): Methyl salicylate

Overview

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) is seeking comments from interested parties on proposed new advisory statements for labels of over the counter (OTC) and registered complementary medicines containing methyl salicylate for dermal use, for inclusion in the Required Advisory Statements for Medicine Labels (RASML). The proposal to include advisory statements for methyl salicylate-containing medicines in RASML follows previously implemented requirements for advisory statements on labels of methyl salicylate-containing listed medicines.

Why we are consulting

The TGA is requesting comments that will help ensure that the proposed advisory statements are appropriate and support the quality use of the medicines and that any label changes that would be required for these medicines are made in the most convenient, efficient and cost-effective way.
