Vaping laws are changing in Australia

From July 1, vapes containing nicotine can only be legally sold by pharmacies to people
who have a prescription from their doctor.
It’s part of a suite of measures taken by the Albanese government to limit the availability
of vapes, while making them available as aids for people who are trying to quit smoking.
Individuals can legally buy vapes from pharmacies. They’ll need a medical prescription
from July 1, but that won’t be a requirement from October 1, when vapes containing
nicotine are downgraded from schedule 4 to schedule 3 of the poisons standard.
In many ways, the process of buying a nicotine vape will be similar to that of buying a
packet of cigarettes — only from a pharmacy.
