A NATIONAL webinar on recent and planned changes affecting the supply and regulation of vaping products will be held by the TGA and the PSA on 27 Feb at 7:30pm AEST.
The 'Clearing the Air - Navigating the Vaping Reforms with Confidence' webinar explores what the regulatory changes will mean for all pharmacists (PD 08 Feb).
It will also introduce the TGA's new validation tool which provides real-time monitoring of the Special Access Scheme and the Authorised Prescriber Scheme notifications to support the safe dispensing of unapproved therapeutic goods.
An update on evidence-based approaches for smoking and vaping cessation and nicotine dependence management will also be covered by guest speakers from the National Quit Training and Resource Centre for Nicotine Cessation.
PSA National President Fei Sim urged pharmacists to attend the webinar and hear directly from the TGA.
"This webinar is a chance for pharmacists to hear directly from the TGA and experts in the field, to gain in-depth understanding of the new regulatory environment, especially as it relates to the dispensing of unapproved vaping products.
"I strongly encourage all pharmacists to attend, especially those who supply or are looking to supply vaping products, to ensure we meet our professional obligations."
