Currently, no nicotine vaping products are approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and registered in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG). Medicines not in the ARTG are known as 'unapproved' medicines. These unapproved medicines can be legally accessed with a valid prescription, but they lack TGA assessment for safety, quality, and efficacy. Therefore, prescribing practitioners must carefully evaluate available evidence and potential risks for each patient.

Several smoking cessation aids, including NRTs and prescription medicines, are registered in the ARTG. Non-pharmaceutical approaches to quitting smoking are also available.
