THE TGA has reached a settlement with InstantScripts, concluding judicial review proceedings over 45 infringement notices issued to the online prescription provider in Nov 2023.
The TGA initially cited InstantScripts for allegedly unlawful advertising of prescription-only medicines on its website.
In response, InstantScripts sought a judicial review in Mar.
Under the settlement terms, the TGA has withdrawn the infringement notices, while InstantScripts has agreed to maintain its website's current prescription service functionality until Jun 2025 or until new TGA advertising guidelines are issued.
This settlement is part of the TGA's ongoing initiative to regulate unlawful advertising of prescription medicines, and enforce legal requirements when promoting such products.
