We will have limited operations from 15:00 Tuesday 24 December 2024 (AEDT) until Thursday 2 January 2025. Find out how to contact us during the holiday period.
Safety alerts are triggered by any potential safety problem linked to a medicine or medical device (therapeutic product). This includes known safety problems, changes in the reporting pattern of known problems, new problems and coincidental events.
You should follow the advice in the alert. Unless it is advised in the alert, you should not stop using a medicine or medical device.
Even though an alert has been issued, it doesn't necessarily mean a product is considered to be unsafe. At the time the safety concern is detected, we may not know if the concern is really caused by the medicine or medical device.
If you have any concerns with a therapeutic product you are using, please contact your health professional.
