Nitrosamines in medicines
We have published updated acceptable intake (AI) information for nitrosamine impurities in medicines consistent with recent EMA updated information - external site. The changes include additional clarification for sponsors and manufacturers of the TGA’s expectations, minor editorial amendments, increases to the AI limit for some nitrosamine impurities and inclusion of recently internationally determined AI limits for numerous nitrosamine impurities in medicines.
Sponsors and manufacturers are expected to be familiar with the current AIs for nitrosamine impurities in medicines.
