How we create content
All content on weightlossmeds.com.au is written by our editorial team and reviewed by our medical advisory board before publication. We source information from Australian regulatory bodies (TGA, PBAC), peer-reviewed clinical trials, and established medical references.
Medical review
Every medication guide, comparison page, and clinical guide is reviewed by at least one AHPRA-registered medical practitioner. Reviews check for clinical accuracy, appropriate context, and responsible health communication.
Updates
We review and update all content regularly. Medication pages and pricing data are checked at least monthly. When significant changes occur (PBS listings, TGA approvals, drug discontinuations), we update affected pages within 24 hours where possible.
Each page displays a "last updated" date so you can see how current the information is.
Editorial independence
Our editorial content is independent of our commercial relationships. Telehealth providers featured on this site do not pay for editorial coverage or influence our reviews. Our recommendations are based on publicly available information, pricing data, and our assessment of the provider's service.
Corrections
If you identify an error or outdated information on any page, please contact us at hello@weightlossmeds.com.au. We take accuracy seriously and will investigate and correct any verified errors promptly.

- Primary sources: TGA product information, PBAC public summary documents, published clinical trial results (STEP, SURMOUNT, SELECT, COR programmes)
- Regulatory bodies: TGA, PBAC, NPS MedicineWise, Australian Prescriber, Healthdirect
- Peer-reviewed literature: Published in journals indexed by PubMed
- Provider information: Pricing and service details verified directly with providers or through their public-facing websites
