Check out this 2 minute video on how to become a Nicotine Authorised Prescriber
A medical practitioner may apply for authority to become an 'Authorised Prescriber' of unapproved nicotine vaping products as an aid to stop smoking without the need for ethics committee approval. The application covers nicotine in solution, salt or base form, for use in smoking cessation. Ethics committee approval continues to be required to become an AP of heat-not-burn tobacco products.
The link below will take you to the TGA's website and the pdf one pager required to be completed and submitted to become an authorised prescriber. For instructions, refer to the Authorised Prescriber user guidance: Special Access Scheme & Authorised Prescriber Scheme Online System. A simplified nicotine-specific online form is available on the AP dashboard of the SAS & Authorised Prescriber Online System. The TGA will only publish your name and consulting location with your consent. Your AP authority will remain valid even if you choose not to have your details published.
From 1 October 2021, all nicotine vaping products, such as nicotine e-cigarettes, nicotine pods and liquid nicotine, are Schedule 4 (prescription only) medicines. Consumers require a prescription for all purchases of nicotine vaping products. This includes purchases from Australian pharmacies and overseas.

We have provided a guide on how to write a nicotine vaping product prescription, to ensure that the Pharmacy can correctly dispense the prescription. It also ensures that the patient receives an Australian standard product.
