Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA)

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) is Australia’s regulatory body responsible for ensuring the safety, quality, and effectiveness of medicines, vaccines, medical devices, and other therapeutic goods. It evaluates and monitors these products before and after they reach the market to protect public health. The TGA sets standards, approves products, conducts inspections, and investigates safety concerns. Its role is to ensure that Australians have access to safe and reliable healthcare products, aligning with national and international regulations to maintain public confidence in healthcare systems.
