SITREP – Patient Voices in the TGA Consultation

29 September, 2025 - 8 Days to Go

We are now in the final stretch. By 7 October, industry must step up to ensure that patient voices are heard.

The TGA consultation and AHPRA’s Rapid Response Taskforce have already created pressure on patients and prescribers, causing long wait times, treatment delays, and uncertainty in care. The Patients deserve to be included in decisions about their medicine.
