Comparative advertising

Australia / TGA

An advertisement about therapeutic goods must not compare the goods with other therapeutic goods, classes of therapeutic goods or therapeutic services where the comparison suggests that the comparator goods or services are harmful or ineffectual.

治療用物品の広告は、他の治療用物品、その種類、または治療サービスとの比較のうち、比較対象が有害または無効であると示唆するものを含んではならない。

Note
This is the only comparison-specific provision in the Code apart from section 35(e)-(f) on price information; comparative claims otherwise fall under the general accuracy and substantiation requirement in section 8.
Every cell carries a summary, a source and a date checked. Topics whose source has not been verified are left marked “not researched” rather than filled with plausible text. Directives and statutes bind as to the result; what applies in practice is national implementing law. This is a research aid, not legal advice.
