TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration)

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) is an Australian government agency responsible for regulating therapeutic goods, which include medicines, medical devices, and blood products. Its main role is to ensure these products are safe, effective, and of high quality before they can be marketed in Australia. The TGA assesses clinical data and conducts reviews to protect public health. The agency also monitors products after they are on the market to address any safety concerns that may arise. In essence, the TGA helps ensure that Australians have access to safe and effective therapeutic products.
