The latest release of MedicalDirector's AusDI medicines information database has been aligned with the recently update ingredient names introduced by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) as part of the International Harmonisation of Ingredient Names (IHIN) initiative.
The TGA, which maintains terminology for ingredients used in medicines in Australia, began a four-year transition to the standardised names in April to align them with names used internationally. New Zealand underwent the process in 2008 and the UK in 2003.
