Homonym: TGA (Transposition)
TGA, or the Therapeutic Goods Administration, is an Australian government agency responsible for regulating medicines, medical devices, and other therapeutic goods. Its primary role is to ensure that these products are safe, effective, and of high quality before they can be marketed and used by the public. The TGA evaluates new products, monitors their use, and provides information to healthcare professionals and consumers.
In addition to product regulation, the TGA also oversees the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, which lists all approved medicines and devices. The agency plays a crucial role in public health by ensuring that therapeutic goods meet strict standards and by responding to safety concerns as they arise.
