30-SECOND ANSWER

A reliable label check moves from product identity to active ingredients, labelled daily dose, warnings, allergens, sponsor details and public-register verification.

01

Identify the regulatory category

Look for the product name, dosage form and any AUST L number. Do not treat the words supplement, listed medicine and approved medicine as interchangeable.

02

Calculate what the daily dose supplies

Use the directions and ingredient panel together. Per-capsule figures alone may not describe the labelled daily amount or how long the pack lasts.

03

Read before purchase

Check warnings, allergens, age restrictions, storage, sponsor and manufacturer statements. Verify the AUST L entry when the product is a listed medicine.
