Andrographis paniculata (Andrographis) and anaphylaxis - updated safety review and supplementary report

The TGA has released a targeted consultation on a proposal to remove Andrographis paniculata (Andrographis) from the Permissible Ingredients Determination. The proposal, made under high-moderate risk changes to the Permissible Ingredients Determination, is based on an updated TGA safety review following continued reports received by the TGA of anaphylaxis and/or hypersensitivity reactions to medicines containing Andrographis. The TGA has invited stakeholders, including consumer associations, health professionals, medicine sponsors and industry peak bodies, including CMA, to provide feedback on the proposed removal of Andrographis from the permitted ingredients list.

The consultation closes Thursday 30 April.
