🎧 E21: Q&A with the TGA: the Perils and Pitfalls of Advertising Therapeutic Goods. In this must-listen episode, I sit down with Professor Tony Lawler, Deputy Secretary of the Australian Federal Government’s Health Products Regulation Group—home to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). We dive into the essential obligations that every Australian health professional needs to know when it comes to discussing, representing, and advertising therapeutic goods—whether in their practice, marketing, or online presence. In today’s digital world, where our footprints are permanent, it's crucial to stay compliant with TGA regulations. Tony sheds light on the legislation and regulations that affect us all, and what I learned was nothing short of eye-opening. This is easily one of my favourite episodes to date. If you're an Aussie health professional, this episode is non-negotiable. Listen twice. Share it with your colleagues. We’re all accountable to these rules, and as Tony made clear, ignorance is no excuse for non-compliance. Grab a cuppa (or something stronger) and settle in for 45 minutes of essential, eye-opening content.
