New Poisons Standard released

July 5, 2016

THE TGA has released the 13th edition of the Standard for the Uniform Scheduling of Medicines and Poisons (SUSMP). Cited as the Poisons Standard July 2016, the new version incorporates amendments to correct an inadvertent error in the previous SUSMP which has pentobarbitone omitted from Appendix K, and ‘phenobarbit’ included instead. SUSMP No. 13 restores the entry to Appendix K, and in so doing updates the name for the substance to pentobarbital to bring the reference into line with the name used internationally. There are also a number of other minor editorial amendments and typographical corrections.
