During a meeting in 2005 the National Drugs and Poisons Schedule Committee (NDPSC) decided to reschedule medicines containing pseudoephedrine. This step has been taken in conjunction with projects being run such as PseudoWatch and PseudoStop, in an effort to reduce the acquisition of pseudoephedrine-containing medicines for the illicit manufacture of methylamphetamine.
The first stage of the rescheduling comes into effect as of 1 January, 2006. This will place all current pseudoephedrine products (slow-release, combination and undivided preparations) in all pack sizes into Schedule 3. Scheduling regulations vary from state to state;
The second stage of rescheduling comes into effect as of 1 April, 2006. This will move all liquid formulations containing more than 800mg of pseudoephedrine, and all combination or single ingredient products, such as capsules and tablets, containing more than 720mg of pseudoephedrine to Schedule 4. Further information concerning the Schedule 4 products will be available closer to the date.
