Sabinsa Corporation has received Product Information (PI) numbers for ForsLean® 10% and 20% from Australia’s TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration), a division of the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing.

Product Information (PI) provides health professionals with a summary of the essential scientific information about a therapeutic product, which requires information relating to its safe and effective use. Product Information documents are provided to and reviewed by the TGA as part of the approval process before a therapeutic product can be made available in Australia.

“As a global company we have become quite familiar with the process of meeting a variety of regulatory requirements in order to sell our products in many different markets,” said Sabinsa Marketing Director Shaheen Majeed. “Although the processes are never simple, we have extensive documentation on the safety and efficacy of our branded ingredients, so it’s just a matter of providing the right information in the right form.”
