This submission responds to a Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) public consultation about whether the current scheduling of paracetamol is appropriate considering available data on paracetamol poisoning, including intentional overdose, and associated hospitalisations and deaths. A variety of options, which suggest new limitations on access to paracetamol, are based on findings and recommendations of an independent expert report, commissioned by the TGA. TGA does not have a view at this stage on the merits or otherwise of any options.
