- The medicines listed in Schedule 3 to this notice are
classified as pharmacy-only medicines.
Every reference to a medicine in this notice applies whether
the medicine is synthetic in origin or is from biological or

Unless specific reference is made otherwise, every reference
applies also to medicines that are:
(a) preparations and admixtures containing any
proportion of any substance listed in the notice.
(b) salts and esters of any substance listed in the notice.
(c) preparations or extracts of biological materials listed
in the notice.
(d) salts or oxides of elements listed in the notice.
Unless specific reference is made otherwise, every reference
to a medicine applies:
(i) if the medicine is in an injection or eye preparation,
to any concentration of that medicine; and
(ii) if the medicine is not in an injection or eye
preparation, only if the concentration of the
medicine is greater than 10 milligrams per litre or
per kilogram.
Where any reference is modified by a statement of the
strength of the medicine, the strength is calculated using
the free acid, base, alcohol or element unless specifically
stated otherwise.
