Australian Product Information sheets are registered with the Australian government’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and provide detailed information about each vaccine, including ingredients and reported adverse events.
Australian Product Information sheets contain all of the same information as is provided on the inserts which accompany the actual vaccines, but are easier to read due to the larger print.
The country where a vaccine was made is not typically disclosed in the Product Information sheets because vaccines are made under licence in countries all over the world. In any case, it would be wishful thinking to believe that vaccines manufactured in Australia are safer than those made in other countries.
On this page you will find Product Information sheets for all vaccines funded under the National Immunisation Program, or by the states and territories. Product Information sheets for the 2020 Flu vaccines are linked further down the page.
There is also a searchable table linking to the Product Information sheets of all vaccines funded by either the federal or state and territory governments at the bottom of the page.
Product Information sheets for travel vaccines such as Yellow Fever vaccine have not been linked on this page but are available by searching the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) on the TGA website.
