Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code - Standard 2.9.5 - Food for Special Medical Purposes
This Standard regulates the sale, composition and labelling of foods specially formulated for the dietary management of individuals with certain diseases, disorders or medical conditions. Food regulated by this Standard is intended to be used under medical supervision.
Because of the specialised nature and purpose of these foods, this Standard includes a restriction on the premises at which, and the persons by whom, food for special medical purposes may be sold to consumers.
Infant formula products as defined in Standard 2.9.1 of the Code and products formulated and represented as being for the dietary management of obesity or overweight are excluded from Standard 2.9.5, even though they might meet the requirements of this Standard.
