Issues related to safety
The name for this medicine made claims regarding skin whitening, and claims that it could relieve symptoms of occasional hangovers when it was subject to the requirement of not implying or referring to alcohol. These claims are not permitted for listed medicines without prior evaluation or approval from the TGA. References to non-permitted claims have the potential to lead consumers to delay access to timely advice or treatment from a suitability qualified health professional when required, which may result in adverse outcomes. However, given this medicine was never marketed, it does not pose an immediate risk to consumer health and safety.
