Abstract

Since 1975, the 'New drugs' section of Australian Prescriber has aimed to provide health professionals with brief, independent, unbiased comments about recently marketed new medicines and vaccines.1 These new drug comments summarise key information about the new drug (e.g. presentation, indications), the evidence that led to its registration in Australia, and its place in therapy.
