3.1 INTRODUCTION 


This section provides Australian Approved Names (AANs) for herbal substances. These 

names should be used where AANs are required for herbal substances in Australian Register 

of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) applications and on product labels. 

Herbal substances are preparations of plants, and other organisms that are treated as plants 

in the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, such as fungi and blue-green algae. 

3.1.1 The Complete Australian Approved Herbal Name 

Herbal substances are named by identifying the herb species, the plant part(s) and the 

preparation. It can be necessary to combine an AAN for each of these pieces of information 

to make the complete AAN for the herbal substance. In some cases, a single AAN names 

the herbal substance. The three methods for making a complete AAN for a herbal substance 

are outlined below. Note that some types of AANs have particular codes: the herb species 

AAN is an "AHN", the food AAN is an "AFN" and where there is a single AAN for a herbal 

substance this is an "AHS". 

a. SPECIES-AHN + PLANT PART-AAN + 

b. 

SUBSTANCE-AHS 

c. FOOD-AFN + 

FOOD PREPARATION-AAN 

194 

PREPARATION-AAN 

e.g. "Thymus serpyllum" + "herb" + "dry" 

"Rhamnus purshianus" + "stem bark" + "tinct. 1:5 in 35% E:W [etc]" 

"Pulsatilla vulgaris" + "whole plant" + "6X" 

e.g. "Orange Oil" as specified in the 1993 British Pharmacopoeia (BP93) 

"Liquorice Powder" as specified in the BP93 

e.g. (i) "apple" + "powder" and (ii) "apple" + "juice fresh" 

This format is only for use in naming food excipients. 

Sometimes the food preparation name is included in the food-AFN, e.g. "walnut 

oil" and "apple cider vinegar". In these cases, the preparation name should not be 

repeated. 

Refer to the Herbal Substances Plant Part AAN List for plant part-AANs and to the Herbal 

Substances Preparation AAN List for preparation-AANs. 

Refer to the Sections 3.5 and 3.6, and the Guidelines to the Expression of Herbal 

Ingredients in ARTG Applications and on Labels (HIEG) for assistance in fully naming and 

quantifying herbal ingredients. This document can be obtained from the TGA Information 

Officer.

3.1.2 Species-AHN + Part + Preparation 


3.1.2.1 Botanical Species-AHNs 

Species-AHNs are the names for herb species. As outlined above, the complete AAN for 

the herbal substance is formed with the species-AHN, the plant part-AAN and the 

preparation-AAN. Species-AHNs are botanical names, e.g. Abies balsamea, where the first 

word is the genus and the second word is the specific epithet; both words together are 

needed to name the herb species. These botanical AHNs are listed in alphabetical order in 

column 1 and identified as an "AHN" in column 2 of the Herbal Substance AAN List. It is 

an international botanical convention to write species names in italics. 

Some botanical names that have not been adopted by the TGA as AHNs are also included in 

column 1 as cross-references. These are marked as "INVALID" in column 2 and the 

appropriate AHN is given in column 3, e.g. "Abies alba" + "INVALID" + "see Abies 

pectinata", indicates that Abies pectinata is the AHN and should be used to name the herb 

species. 

Where no species-AHN has been approved for a herb, a sponsor should propose a species- 

AHN. If a product contains a "new" herb not previously supplied in Australia, this could 

cause the product to NOT be eligible for Listing in the ARTG. Contact the Herb Names Coordinator 

for assistance in the correct procedure to follow to obtain a new species-AHN, and 

for advice regarding safety evaluations of “new” herbal substances. 

3.1.2.2 Plant Part-AANs 

Where the herb species has been named with an AHN, the ingredient name should be 

completed using a plant part-AAN and a preparation-AAN. Plant part-AANs are listed in 

the Herbal Substances Plant Part AAN List. Note that terms for use in ARTG applications 

are in column 2 and that a choice of terms for use on labels are given in columns 2 and 3. 

Some plant part names that have not been adopted by the TGA as plant part-AANs are also 

included in column 1 as cross-references. 

Where no plant part-AAN has been approved, contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator for 

advice and, where appropriate, for a plant part-AAN to be created. 

3.1.2.3 Plant Preparation-AANs 

Where the herb species has been named with a species-AHN and plant part-AAN, the 

ingredient name should be completed using a preparation-AAN. Preparation-AANs are 

listed in the Herbal Substances Plant Preparation AAN List. Note that terms for use in 

ARTG applications are compiled as shown in four columns and that a choice of simple 

terms for use on labels are given in the far right column. 

Where the preparation is a type of extract (other than an oil), the complete preparation-AAN 

includes identifying whether the raw material herb used to make the extract is "fresh" or 

"dry". 

195


Some preparation names that have not been adopted by the TGA as preparation-AANs are 

also included in column 1 as cross-references. 

Where no preparation-AAN has been approved, contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator for 

advice and, where appropriate, for a preparation-AAN to be created. 

3.1.2.4 Medicinally Interchangeable Substances (MIS-AANs) 

Where a group of medicinally interchangeable substances (MIS) has been recognised, any 

one or any combination of the herbal substances in the MIS group may be used to make the 

one ingredient. Each batch of the product may be made using a different selection from the 

approved MIS, e.g. in the Drosera MIS group, "Drosera rotundifolia MIS whole plant 

fresh" indicates that in any batch the fresh whole plant of any one or any combination of the 

following four sundews may be used: Drosera intermedia, D. longifolia, D. ramentacia and 

D. rotundifolia. 

To name an ingredient with a MIS-AAN, use a herb species-AHN from the MIS group, state 

"MIS", the plant part-AAN and the preparation-AAN. For example, if in the Thymus MIS 

group the powder of the flowering herb is used, both "Thymus vulgaris MIS herb fl. 

powder" and "Thymus zygis MIS herb fl. powder" are complete AANs. 

MIS-AANs are given in column 1 identified as an "MIS" in column 2 and described in 

column 3 of the Herbal Substances AAN List. Note that the column 3 description could 

restrict the plant part(s) and the preparation(s), as well as the herb species, that may be 

interchanged. 

To propose a MIS-AAN, a detailed submission is required from a product sponsor 

comparing the known active components, therapeutic actions and therapeutic uses of the 

herbal substances. 

The above examples of MIS-AANs are named with the species-AHN + plant part-AAN + 

preparation-AAN format. Compare this with the substance-AHSs below. 

3.1.3 Substance-AHS 

3.1.3.1 The Substance-AHS 

The substance AHS is the only type of herbal AAN that is a complete AAN. Where it is 

appropriate to use a substance-AHS, there is no need to add further details of the part and 

preparation beyond the words in the substance-AHS. Although every herbal substance-AHS 

is linked to a monograph reference, e.g. "BP93", this reference is not part of the AHS. 

Examples of substance-AHSs are: "Angelica Root Oil", "Benzoin Sumatra" and "Garlic 

Bulb Powder". 

3.1.3.2 Finding a Substance-AHS 

Substance-AHSs are capitalised in column 1, identified as an "AHS" in column 2 and 

described briefly in column 3 of the Herbal Substances AAN List. They appear twice: (a) in 

alphabetical order and (b) underneath the herb species-AHN(s). For example, "Yarrow 

Herb Dry" is listed under "Yarrow" and also underneath "Achillea millefolium". 

Some herbal substance names that either have been phased out or have not been adopted by 

the TGA as AHSs are also included in column 1 as cross-references. These are marked as 

"INVALID" or "PHASED OUT" in column 2 and the appropriate AHS or herb species- 

AHN is given in column 3. For example: 

196


a. at the time of publication there was no pharmacopoeial monograph that gave 

adequate identification characteristics of borage oil, so the entry "Borage Oil" + 

"INVALID" + "if appropriate use: Borago officinalis seed oil fixed" indicates that 

if the herbal substance being used is in fact the fixed oil of the seed, then the 

suggested name should be used; 

b. the entry "Balsam - Oregon" + "PHASED OUT" + "where appropriate use: 

Pseudotsuga menziesi gum resin ~fresh/~dry/~extract etc" indicates that the 

ingredient should be named with the species-AHN, plant part and preparation. 

3.1.3.3 Selecting the Substance-AHS 

To assist in determining if a substance-AHS is appropriate for naming a particular 

ingredient, a brief note of the herbal material used to make the ingredient substance is given 

in column 3 with a reference to the monograph where a description of the actual herbal 

substance can be found. For example: 

a. in column 1 is the herbal substance-AHS "Almond Oil"; 

b. in column 3 is a note that the oil is made from: "Prunus dulcis seed (kernel) oil 

fixed cold pressed"; 

c. also in column 3 is "as in BP93" which refers to the 1993 edition of the British 

Pharmacopoeia where the monograph contains a description of the identifying 

features of the oil. 

A substance-AHS may ONLY be used to name an ingredient where the ingredient is made 

from the herbal raw material specified in the monograph AND where the ingredient can be 

positively identified from the characteristics given in that monograph. 

Raw material: Most monographs name a single herb species and plant part from which the 

substance is to be prepared. In some cases, two or more herb species and/or two or more 

plant parts are named as suitable raw material to make the same herbal substance. 

Identification characteristics: The monograph description of dry or powdered herbs usually 

includes the macroscopic and microscopic appearance of the herbal material, and the 

expected results of physical and chemical identification tests. An oil is usually identified by 

physical characteristics such as optical rotation and specific density, chromatographic 

pattern and chemical identification tests. 

Where a substance-AHS exists for a particular preparation of a particular part of a herb, 

usually, if the substance-AHS is NOT used, then the ingredient need not meet the 

description or standards of that monograph; in this case, the herb species-AHN format 

should be used to name the ingredient. However, where there is an appropriate 

monograph in the most recent edition of the British Pharmacopoeia (BP), the herbal 

substance MUST comply with both the description and the standards set out in the 

monograph and the substance-AHS should be used. 

Where no substance-AHS has been approved for a herbal substance, sponsors may choose to 

propose a substance-AHS based on a suitable pharmacopoeial monograph. Otherwise, the 

herbal ingredient should be named with the species-AHN, plant part-AAN and preparation- 

AAN. 

197


3.1.3.4 Using the Substance-AHS 

In Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) applications the substance-AHS 

should be stated exactly as written in the Herbal Substance AAN List. On product labels, 

where necessary to achieve plain English, the word order of the substance-AHS may be 

altered. For example, where the ARTG application would state "Aloes Barbados Dry", the 

label may alternatively state "Barbados Aloes Dry" or "Dry Barbados Aloes". 

3.1.3.5 Phased Out Substance-AHSs 

The substance-AHSs identified in July 1995 as "being phased out" are now marked as 

"PHASED OUT" in column 2 of in the Herbal Substance AAN List or have been omitted 

altogether. They are no longer valid AANs, should not be used in ARTG applications and 

should not appear on product labels. 

In this edition of the Herbal Substance AAN List, most changes to substance-AHSs are due 

to a monograph in an earlier edition being replaced by a more recent monograph. Sponsors 

should ensure that ingredients named with an substance-AHS can still be positively 

identified using the characteristics outlined in the new monograph. 

3.1.3.6 The Substance-AHS Reference Monograph 

The Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 adopts the most recent edition of the British 

Pharmacopoeia as the standard for drug substances where there is a relevant monograph 

(refer Part 2, Clause 10(2)(a)(iv) of the Act). Therefore, where possible, substance-AHSs 

refer to a monograph in the most recent edition of the British Pharmacopoeia and its 

supplements (BP) and the BP appendices (BPAP). Note that extracted herbal preparations 

are generally named with the species-AHN, plant part-AAN and preparation-AAN. 

Where there is no relevant monograph in the most recent BP edition, an earlier edition or 

another suitable pharmacopoeial reference may be used. To be suitable as a basis for 

naming herbal substance-AHSs, pharmacopoeias should: 

a. provide a description of the source material and method of preparation; 

b. give detailed identification characteristics of the substance; 

c. be written in English and be readily accessible in Australia; and 

d. preferably, have been published in a recent edition. 

The pharmacopoeias considered to meet the above criteria are: 

EP3 European Pharmacopoeia 3 rd edition 1996 

USP23 United States Pharmacopoeia 23rd edition 1995 incorporating the National 

Formulary 18th edition; supplements 1, 2, &3 (1995), 4, 5 (1996), 6, 7, (1997), 8,9 

(1998) 

BHP90 British Herbal Pharmacopoeia volume 1 1990 

FCC3 Food Chemicals Codex 3rd edition 1981 and supplements 1 (1983), 2 (1986), 

3 (1992) and 4 

BPC73 British Pharmaceutical Codex 1973 

3.1.4 Food-AFN + Food Preparation-AAN 

3.1.4.1 The Food-AFNs 

Plant food-AFNs name the herb species, the plant part(s) and, in some cases, the 

preparation. Where the preparation is not specified, the AAN for the food substance is 

completed with the food preparation-AAN. Food-AFNs are given in column 1 and 

identified as an "AFN" in column 2 of the Herbal Substances AAN List. To help distinguish 

them from substance-AHSs, they do not have capitals. Like substance-AHSs, food-AFNs 

are located both in alphabetical order and under the plant species. Unlike substance-AHSs, 

198


food-AFNs are defined only by (a) the Herbal Substances AAN List description of the plant 

material source and preparation and (b) the requirement that they be edible. 

Food-AANs may only be used to name ingredients that are included as food excipients. 

Each food-AFN description names the one or more species that may be used to obtain the 

edible food substance. Where the genus is named without indicating a particular species, 

any one or more species in that genus may be used. Where "hybrids" are included, these 

may be any of the hybrid cultivars with at least one parent species being one of the species 

named in the food-AFN description. 

Food-AFN descriptions refer only to edible substances fit for human consumption as food. 

Even where an inedible substance otherwise complies with the description of a food 

substance in the Herbal Substances AAN List, that inedible substance may not be named 

with a food-AAN. 

It is anticipated that the definition of most food-AFNs will broaden as sponsors provide 

evidence that a greater range of plant species are commonly used to make each food. The 

broad definition of food-AFNs and the absence of a pharmacopoeial monograph to describe 

the identification characteristics of each substance, make food-AFNs unsuitable for naming 

active ingredients. 

3.1.4.2 The Food Preparation-AFNs 

Only certain preparations may be named with most food-AFNs: fresh, dry and powdered 

plant material and fresh, dried and concentrated juices. Juice preparations may only be 

named where the fresh plant part has a high water content. 

For example, the food-AFN "apple", defined as the edible fruit of any of the varieties of 

Malus X domestica, can be used to name the following food excipients: 

a. apple fresh 

b. apple dry 

c. apple powder 

d. apple juice fresh 

apple juice dry (including powder, flour, meal) 

apple juice concentrate (partially but not completely dried) 

Other food preparations may be named with a food-AFN only where there is a particular 

food-AFN for that preparation, eg "walnut oil" is designated as a food-AAN in addition to 

"walnut". Note that "walnut oil" is a complete AAN, whereas "walnut" must be completed 

with the food preparation-AAN. Food-AFNs are not, in general, adopted for extracted 

preparations other than oils. 

Refer to the Guidelines to the Expression of Herbal Ingredients in ARTG Applications and 

on Labels (HIEG) for definitions of the types of preparations and methods of quantifying 

ingredients. Note that juice concentrates should, in ARTG applications, be quantified both 

as the preparation and as the equivalent fresh volume or dry weight. 

On product labels, where appropriate, there are some acceptable alternatives for terms in 

food-AFNs: 

a. a."flour" (e.g. wheat flour) or "meal" (e.g. almond meal) may substitute for 

"powder" 

b. "dried" may substitute for "dry" 

c. "juice powder" may substitute for "juice dry" 

d. the plant part may be written in the plural, e.g. "flowers" 

e. word order may be varied to achieve plain English. 

199


3.1.5 Common Names 

Common names are given in the column 4 opposite the relevant herb species-AHN. The 

common names in this list are not AANs. They are used as the basis for the index to the 

Herbal Substances AAN List to assist in locating the correct AHN. Only a limited range of 

common names are given here for any one species and often the common names given refer 

to several closely related species, the entire genus and/or to unrelated species. Consequently, 

even where a common name is associated with only one herb species-AHN in the Herbal 

Substances AAN List, a common name cannot be used to positively identify the correct 

herb species. 

It remains the responsibility of the sponsor to ensure that each and every AAN used is 

correctly selected and does indicate the herb species or herbal substance being named. 

On labels where AANs are required to be used, sponsor's may elect to use a common name in 

addition to the complete AAN (refer 6). In such circumstances, the common name need not 

necessarily be selected from those in the Herbal Substances AAN List, but should be correct 

in representing that species and also reflect common usage and understanding in Australia. 

3.1.6 Additional Claims 

On product labels, sponsor's may state extra information about herbal ingredients, in addition 

to the complete AAN, provided all the information required under the labelling order is 

present and the additional information is both correct and unlikely to be misleading to 

consumers. 

Where the extra information on the label constitutes a claim about that ingredient, it 

should be included as part of the ingredient name in the product ARTG application. 

Where additional label claims are being considered, the following points should be noted: 

a. a common name may be used, but should: 

• correctly represent either the herbal substance, e.g. borage oil and starflower oil or 

the herb species, e.g. black cohosh, willow 

• reflect common usage and understanding in Australia 

b. a botanical synonym: 

• may be used where it correctly represents the herbal species, eg Aloe vera 

• may not be used if it refers only to a particular subspecies, variety or chemotype 

c. an additional plant part term (refer Plant Parts AAN List Introduction): 

• may be used where it refers to characteristic that is usual for the herb species, eg the 

"central taproot" of Taraxacum officinale (dandelion) ... "root" may be stated in the 

application 

• may not be used where it indicates that the plant part is unusual, eg "mature" 

rhizomes of Echinacea purpurea ... both "rhizome" and "mature" should be stated 

in the application 

d. an additional preparation term (refer Plant Preparations AAN List Introduction): 

• may be used where it refers to characteristic that is usual for the preparation, eg a 

"boiled" decoction 

• may not be used where it indicates that the preparation is unusual, eg "freeze dried" 

powder ... both "powder" and "freeze dried" should be stated in the application. 

200


e. an additional herbal component name (refer Herbal Component AAN List 

Introduction) 

• may be used where it correctly represents a synonym of the HCN used eg. 

xanthophyll (lutein) 

• may be used where it is an approved “label-HCN” eg. “lignans” for “lignans 

calculated as secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (of Linum usitatissimum)” 

• may not be used where the component is quantified on the label or in the indications 

201


3.2 PROPOSING A HERBAL AAN 

The expression of herbal ingredients in ARTG applications involves seven types of AANs: 

Type of AAN Example 

species-AHN Mentha x piperita 

plant part-AAN seed 

Preparation-AAN oil ess. 

MIS-AAN* Thymus vulgaris MIS 

Substance-AHS* Peppermint Oil 

food-AFN* wheat germ 

food preparation-AAN juice fresh 

active component HCN anthocyanosides 

active component AAN menthol 

* Where a proposed substance-AHS, food-AFN or MIS-AAN is not adopted, name the herbal 

ingredient with the species-AHN + plant part-AAN + plant preparation-AAN. 

Contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator BEFORE proposing any herbal AAN. AAN's 

must be approved BEFORE submitting an application to list or vary a product for 

supply in Australia. 

3.2.1 Proposing a Species-AHN 

To propose a species-AHN, submit the completed application form: Proposed Botanical 

Name for a Herb used in Therapeutic Goods (see next section). The proposed botanical 

name should be given. Attach supporting material from botanical references. Where 

required, it is recommended that supporting material includes information drawn from a 

botanical flora of the area in which the plant is native eg Flora Europea. 

There is no set order of priority in the botanical references. Where the botanical references 

are not in agreement or the reliability of the information is in question, advice is sought by 

the TGA from the staff of herbaria in order to select the botanical name in accordance with 

the most recent edition of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature. 

3.2.2 Proposing a Plant Part-AAN 

Contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator to find out if there is an existing plant part-AAN that 

is appropriate. If necessary, a new plant part-AAN will be created. 

3.2.3 Proposing a Plant Preparation-AAN 

Contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator to find out if there is an existing preparation-AAN 

that is appropriate. If necessary, a new preparation-AAN will be created. 

3.2.4 Proposing a MIS-AAN 

A sponsor may propose an MIS-AAN by submitting to the Office of Complementary 

Medicines a detailed submission clearly establishing that the proposed interchangeable 

herbal material has very similar therapeutic action(s) and use(s) when used in the same 

strength. 

202


Where an application is to list or vary a listing of a product for supply in Australia: 

a. at least one of the herbal substances in the proposed MIS group must be eligible 

for listing; and 

b. the proposed MIS-AANs must be approved before being used to name an 

ingredient in an ARTG application. 

The sponsor's submission to the Office of Complementary Medicines should set out all 

of the following information: 

a. the herbs in the proposed MIS group: named using species-AHNs with, if 

appropriate, details of sub-species, varieties and chemotypes 

b. the plant part(s) under discussion: named using plant part-AANs, e.g. the 

submission could be restricted to the "stem bark" of Salix species or the "root and 

rhizome" of Valerian species; if appropriate, give further details of the plant 

part(s) 

c. the preparation(s) under discussion: named using preparation-AANs, e.g. the 

submission could be restricted to only volatile "essential oil" preparations or to 

only homoeopathic preparations; if appropriate, give further details of the 

preparation(s). 

The sponsor's submission should also include both supporting data and a concise 

summary clearly comparing the following characteristics of each herbal substance: 

a. the strength of active components in the prepared herbal material (where the 

actives are not known it would be difficult to establish the comparative strength) 

b. the therapeutic actions of the prepared herbal material 

c. the therapeutic actions of the isolated active components in (a) above 

d. the therapeutic uses of the prepared herbal material. 

Where there is no AHN for a species, the submission should include a completed proposed 

species-AHN form. Where there is no plant part-AAN or preparation-AAN, contact the 

Herb Names Co-ordinator. 

3.2.5 Proposing a Herbal Substance-AHS 

Substance-AHSs based on previously accepted pharmacopoeias are usually created by the 

Herb Names Co-ordinator at the time the next edition, supplement or appendix becomes 

available. Substance-AHSs based on other pharmacopoeias can only be approved where the 

TGA considers that the reference monograph is suitable. Note that extracted herbal 

preparations, other than oils, are generally not named with a substance-AHS but with the 

species-AHN + plant part-AAN + preparation-AAN. 

To propose a herbal substance-AHS, submit the completed application form: Proposed 

Name for a Herbal Substance used in Therapeutic Goods (see next section). The proposed 

substance-AHS name, based on the monograph title, should be given and supporting 

material from the pharmacopoeial reference should accompany the application. 

Name the herb species, plant part(s) and preparation using AANs. Where there is no AAN 

for a species, part or preparation, these should be proposed at the same time. 

203


3.2.6 Proposing a Food-AFN 

To propose a new food-AFN or the extension of a definition of an existing food-AFN, 

submit the completed application form: Proposed Name for a Plant Food used in 

Therapeutic Goods (see next section). The proposed food name should be given and 

supporting material, defining the food, should accompany the application. Contact the Herb 

Names Co-ordinator to find out if evidence of common food use should be attached. 

Name the herb species, plant part(s) and preparation using AANs. Where there is no AAN 

for a species, part or preparation, these should be proposed at the same. Note that usually 

only fixed oils and the other standard six food preparation types are allowed for food-AANs; 

contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator if another type of preparation is being considered. 

Note that extracted herbal preparations, other than fixed oils, are generally not named with a 

food-AFN but with the species-AHN + plant part-AAN + preparation-AAN. 

3.2.7 Proposing a Food Preparation-AAN 

Contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator to find out if there is an existing food preparation- 

AAN that is appropriate. 

It is unlikely that any food preparation-AANs, other than the standard six food preparation- 

AANs, will be created. However, in individual cases, a food-AFN may be created to 

include a different preparation in the definition and these AFNs are complete food substance 

AANs. This applies to the names for food oils, e.g. "macadamia nut oil", and can apply to 

unusual preparations, e.g. "apple cider vinegar", "apple fibre" and "grape wine white". 

Therefore, to propose a new food preparation-AAN, propose a food-AFN with a single 

preparation named. 

3.2.8 Proposing an HCN for a Component of a Herb 

To propose a name for a single, or a group of isolated chemical component(s) of a herbal 

ingredient, contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator. The need for a herbal component name 

(HCN) most often arises where a herbal ingredient is standardised to a chemical group such 

as anthocyanosides, flavonglycosides etc. HCNs are only accepted in the ARTG database 

where they name a component of an ingredient, not an ingredient itself. 

An application proposing a new HCN should include: 

. evidence the component(s) occur in the herbal substance indicated 

. illustration(s) of the chemical structure of the component(s) 

. where a group of components, a statement of the relative proportion of each in the 

herbal substance 

. if quantified ‘calculated as’ a component or other chemical substance, name that 

substance. 

3.2.9 Proposing an AAN for an Active Component of a Herb 

It is possible to propose an AAN for a single isolated chemical component of a herbal 

ingredient, by submitting the completed application form: Proposed Name for a Chemical 

Substance used in a Therapeutic Good Section 1.2.2. Give the chemical formula and attach 

supporting material from pharmaceutical references. 

204


Note however, that it is usual for a chemical substance that is only a component herbal 

substance, but not an ingredient in its own right, to be named as an HCN.

3.3 HERBAL SUBSTANCES AAN LIST 


The Herbal Substances AAN List (HSAL) contains Australian Approved Names (AANs) for 

Ingredients made from plant and plant-like material. 

3.3.1.1 Ingredient Names 

Ingredient names, in full or in part, are given in column 1 of the following table. Where 

approved, current and complete, these names may be used in Australian Register of 

Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) applications and on labels where herbal ingredients are required 

to be named with an AAN. 

3.3.1.2 Approved Herbal Names: Types and Components 

Herbal substances* are defined by indicating the herb species, the plant part and certain 

preparation details. The complete AAN for a herbal substance ingredient always specifies 

these details, but can do so in several ways. The information can be stated directly or the 

name can refer to a pharmacopoeial description or to a definition in the HSAL. The 

situation which applies is indicated in column 2. 

* the term "herbal substance" can have a more restricted meaning (refer to comments on the 

next page). 

In column 2, each ingredient name is identified as one of the following: 

AHN + part + prep MIS + part + prep INVALID 

AHS alone MIS + prep PHASED OUT 

AFN + food prep MIS alone PHASING OUT 

AFN alone Entry Under 

3.3.1.3 Species-AHNs 

Where a valid and current ingredient name is the name of the herb species, it may be used as 

the first part of a complete AAN for a herbal substance. As indicated in column 2 by "AHN 

+ part + prep", the plant part-AAN and preparation-AAN should be added to make the 

complete AAN. For more information, refer to Introduction to this section. 

3.3.1.4 Substance-AHSs 

Where a valid and current ingredient name is linked to a pharmacopoeial monograph, "AHS 

alone" will be stated in column 2 and the name may be used as the complete AAN for the 

herbal substance. In column 3, the herb species, plant part, some preparation details and the 

monograph reference will be given. Abbreviations used to refer to pharmacopoeias are 

given in section 3.6 of the HSAL Introduction. 

Where there is a monograph for a herbal substance in the most recent editionof the British 

Pharmacopoeia (BP), the ingredient must comply with both the description and the standards 

set out in that BP monograph (refer section 3.3 of the HSAL Introduction). In this case, the 

ingredient must be named with the substance-AHS. On labels, the species-AHN format may 

be used in addition to naming the ingredient with the substance-AHS. 

208


Where the reference is not to a recent BP monograph, only use the substance-AHS where 

the ingredient does comply with the monograph description. Otherwise name the ingredient 

with the species-AHN, plant part and preparation (refer Introduction this section). 

Where more than one herb species is stated in the substance-AHS description, any one or any 

combination of those species may be used in any batch of the product. Where more than one 

plant part is stated, all the plant parts named should be used to make every batch of the 

product, except where the description states the plant parts linked by "&/or" or "or", in which 

case any one or any combination of those plant parts may be used in any batch of the product. 

Where more than one preparation is stated, any one or any combination of those preparations 

may be used in any batch of the product. 

For more information, refer to the Introduction to this section. 

3.3.1.5 Food-AFNs 

In most cases, the name of a plant food is composed of the main food name (AFN) and a 

food preparation-AAN. The six food preparation-AANs are listed in section 4.2 of the 

HSAL Introduction. Some foods with unusual preparations may be given a food-AFN that is 

a complete AAN and, if this is the case, "AFN alone" is stated in column 2. Food names 

may only be used to name edible food excipients. 

Where more than one herb species, more than one plant part or more than one preparation is 

stated in the food-AFN description, refer for an interpretation to the comments above under 

"substance-AHS's". 

For more information, refer to the Introduction to this section. 

3.3.1.6 Interchangeable MIS-AANs 

A small number of MIS-AANs have been approved for medicinally interchangeable 

substances. Form the complete AAN for the herbal substance as indicated in column 2. 

For example, where the MIS specifies only the interchangeable species, the complete AAN is 

made from the "MIS + part + prep" so that the plant part-AAN and preparation-AAN must be 

added. 

Where more than one herb species, more than one plant part or more than one preparation is 

stated in the MIS-AAN description, refer for an interpretation to the comments above under 

"substance-AHS's". 

3.3.1.7 Entry Under 

Where an ingredient name is shown as "Entry Under", refer to the name listed in column 3 

for full details. 

3.3.1.8 Invalid Names 

Where an ingredient name is "INVALID" it is not an approved name. Reference is usually 

made in column 3 to one or more valid (approved) names that could be appropriate. Only 

use a cross-reference term where it does apply to the ingredient in question. Look up the 

cross-reference term to find out how to construct the complete AAN. 

209


3.3.1.9 Phased Out AANs 

Where an ingredient name is "PHASED OUT" it is no longer a current AAN. It should not 

be used in ARTG applications and should not be used on labels. In some cases, the term is 

in the process of "PHASING OUT" and may continue to be used on pre-existing labels for a 

period. Reference is usually made in column 3 to one or more current AANs that could be 

appropriate. Only use a cross-reference term where it does apply to the ingredient in 

question. Look up the cross-reference term for information on constructing the complete 

AAN. 

3.3.1.10 Listable Herbal Substances List 

In column 3 of the following table, the ARTG status of each ingredient is given. Where a 

substance-AHS has more than one status, eg “L/RS4”, refer to the herb species-AHN entry 

for more information. 

Listable 

Where an ingredient is able to be included as an active ingredient in a product listed in the 

ARTG, the status is “Listable active”. Where appropriate, these ingredients may also be 

included as excipient ingredients in listed products and as active or excipient ingredients in 

registered products. 

Note that a product may only be listed in the ARTG if the active herbal ingredients are 

prepared using one of the particular methods that are permissable for “herbal substances” as 

defined in the Therapeutic Goods Regulations. 

Excipient 

Where an ingredient is only able to be included in a listed product if the ingredient has an 

excipient role, the status is “Excipient only”. 

Food excipient 

This status indicates that the ingredient may be included in listed and registered products 

where the ingredient is an edible food excipient. Where an active ingredient role is 

appropriate, name the ingredient with the species-AHN + plant part + preparation. 

"New" excipient 

Where an ingredient could have an excipient role but has not previously been included in a 

product that is included in the ARTG for supply in Australia, the ingredient is considered to 

be a “new” excipient. 

Special conditions apply if the product is to be listed in the ARTG. For more information, 

refer to the Guidelines for applicants: Listing Drug Products in the Australian Register of 

Therapeutic Goods for supply in Australia. In a registered product the proposed ingredient 

role would be subject to evaluation. 

Registrable - Regulations 

Some herbal substances are made ineligible for inclusion as active ingredients in a listed 

product as a result of being named in the Therapeutic Goods Regulations, Schedule 4 Part 4. 

Should an excipient role be proposed, these ingredients would usually be considered unsafe 

for inclusion in a listed product. 

Some herbal substances are excluded from the Regulations Schedule 4 Part 4 at certain very 

low recommended daily doses and so may be included in listed products. Most often, this is 

210


where the recommended daily dose is equivalent to 1 mg or less of the dry raw herbal 

material used to make the ingredient. 

211


Registrable - poison scheduled 

Some herbal substances may not be included as an active or excipient ingredient in a listed 

product as a result of being included in one of the schedules to the Standard for the Uniform 

Scheduling of Drugs & poisons (SUSDP). 

Some herbal substances are excluded from the SUSDP, and so may be included in listed 

products, where the ingredient is in a very low concentration in the product. Most often, this 

is where the scheduled herbal substance or component is in a concentration equal to or less 

than 10 microgram of the substance per gram or millilitre of the product (ie 10 mg per 

kilogram or litre). This is equivalent to or more dilute than a 5X homoeopathic potency 

measured according to the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States. For more 

information, refer to the Part 4 76(8)(b) and 76(8)(c) and to Appendix G of the SUSDP. 

Some homoeopathic ingredients that are not excluded from schedules in the SUSDP may be 

included in listed products that are homoeopathic preparation where the active ingredient is 

homoeopathically prepared and is more dilute than a one-thousand fold dilution of a mother 

tincture. Refer to the Regulations Schedule 4 Part 1. 

Dilute homoeopathic only 

Some herbal substances may not, in general, be used in therapeutic goods as a result of the 

herbal substance or a component being included in Appendix C of the SUSDP. 

It may be permissable to include these herbal substances in listed and registered products 

where the preparation is of acceptable preparation and dilution: that is, there the herbal 

substance is prepared homoeopathically and the dilution of the herbal substance is 12X or 

more dilute when measured according to the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United 

Stated, ie usually equal to or more dilute than 1 nanogram of the ingredient per gram or 

millilitre of the product. 

Note: 

Those herbs given the ARTG status of 'RN' or 'registrable new' in the July 1995 edition of 

the Australian Approved Terminology Book have been removed from the July 1999 edition 

(unless their ARTG status changed during that time). The aim is to avoid the confusion 

about herbal substances which are listable and herbal substances which may be listable but 

have not yet been evaluated for safety. Prior to the establishment of the Complementary 

Medicines Evaluation Committee (CMEC), unevaluated herbs and herbal substances were 

regarded as Registrable, at least in the first instance.

3.4 HERBAL SUBSTANCES INDEX OF COMMON NAMES 

This index of common names is provided to assist with identifying the Australian Approved 

Name (AAN) for herbal ingredients. Only a small number of examples of common names are 

given for each herbs species in the Herbal Substances AAN List and no attempt has been made 

to include the wide range of common names used around the world. Consequently, this index 

cannot be used to positively identify the correct herb species name, even where a common 

name is associated in this index with only one species-AHN. 

The common names used in this index are not AANs. Where an AAN is required to be 

used to name a herbal ingredient on the label of a therapeutic good, a common name may be 

used in addition to the complete AAN. In such circumstances, the common name need not 

necessarily be selected from this index but should be correct in representing the species and 

also reflect common usage and understanding in Australia. 

It remains the responsibility of the sponsor to ensure that each and every AAN used is 

correctly selected and does indicate the herbal ingredient being named. 

To select the appropriate complete AAN for a herbal ingredient, carry out the following steps: 

a. from the manufacturer or raw material supplier, obtain the botanical name for the 

herb used to make the herbal ingredient - sometimes there are two or more botanical 

names (synonyms) for the one herb species; 

b. look through the main Herbal Substances AAN List (HSAL) to locate the approved 

herb species name and to see if there are any substance-AHSs, food-AFNs or MIS- 

AANs approved for ingredients made from that herb species; 

c. where there is a substance-AHS, food-AFN or MIS-AAN: 

determine if the name is appropriate to the ingredient ... for the name to be used, the 

ingredient should comply with the description written opposite and (i) in the case of 

AFNs, the ingredient should be an edible food excipient and (ii) in the case of AHSs, 

the ingredient should comply with the detailed physical and chemical description in 

the referenced monograph and, if the monograph is in the most recent edition of the 

British Pharmacopoeia, the ingredient must also comply with the standards set out 

in the monograph (refer to the Introduction to the HSAL); and 

identify the complete AAN ... (i) most food-AFNs are completed with the food 

preparation name and (ii) most MIS-AANs only define the herb species and are 

completed with the plant part and the preparation; 

d. where there is no appropriate AHS, AFN or MIS-AAN, name the ingredient using 

the species-AHN format, completing the AAN with the plant part and the 

preparation; 

e. refer to the Guidelines to the Expression of Herbal Ingredients in ARTG 

Applications and on Labels for guidance in fully naming and quantifying the 

herbal ingredient.

3.5 HERBAL SUBSTANCES PLANT PARTS AAN LIST 


This list provides Australian Approved Names (AANs) for plant parts. These names 

should be used where plant part terms are required to complete the AAN for a herbal 

substance named in ARTG applications and on product labels. 

Refer to the Introduction to the Herbal Substances AAN List for guidance in using plant 

part-AANs as part of the complete AAN for naming a herbal substance. 

Refer to this section and the Guidelines to the Expression of Herbal Ingredients in 

ARTG Applications and on Labels for assistance in fully naming and quantifying herbal 

ingredients. The guidelines are available through the TGA Publications Office. 

3.5.1.1 The Plant Part-AAN 

Plant part-AANs must be botanically correct terms and, where possible, are also 

generally recognised terms. 

In ARTG applications, plant part-AANs are terms that refer to all examples of the 

same part of the plant so that there is usually only one appropriate term. Examples of 

plant part-AANs are "leaf", "seed", "root" and "whole plant". 

On product labels, there may be several alternative plant part-AANs that are approved 

for use. 

Where the expression suggested in the HIEG has been followed, and label space is still 

limiting, certain abbreviations are approved to name the part on labels. See the Plant 

Parts AAN List for permitted label abbreviations. 

3.5.1.2 Finding Plant Part-AANs 

The Plant Parts AAN List is presented in three columns: 

Content of column Comment 

1 st Column common usage and technical 

terms for plant parts. Arranged in 

alphabetical order 

2 nd Column a term in bold for use in/on 

ARTG applications or product 

labels 

3 rd Column term(s) for use on product 

labels 

may or may not be suitable for use ... 

refer to columns 2 and 3 

where more than one plant part-AAN is 

suggested opposite a term in column 1, 

select the appropriate term for the plant 

part used to make the ingredient 

terms in this column are an optional 

alternative for labels only


3.5.1.3 Selecting the Plant Part-AAN 

The name of the plant part should be obtained from the raw material supplier. Although 

the Plant Parts AAN List contains some 160 different plant part-AANs, most ingredients 

are made from one of the following few parts: 

whole plant * leaf * st em stem bark 

herb * Flower * twig root bark 

herb top * Fruit * root * stem wood 

herb flowering * Seed * rhizome root wood 

herb top flowering * root & rhizome 

* The meaning of the term is interpreted more broadly by the 

TGA than would be the case if a strict botanical definition were 

used. An explanation of the meaning is given in the 3.5.1.8 

‘Definitions’. 

If the plant part is not one of those in the table above, check column 1 to find the name: 

a. if the plant part is in column 1: 

i. if there is only one plant part-AAN in column 2, then use the term; 

ii. if there are two or more plant part-AANs in column 2, then select the 

correct term; 

iii. if there is a statement "refer ...", then look up each of the crossreference 

entries and then select the correct term; 

b. if the supplier's name for the part is not in column 1, then contact the Herb 

Names Co-ordinator to find out if this is a new plant part. 

Ensure that the term selected accurately describes the part(s) used and that all parts 

named are present in every batch of the product. 

3.5.1.4 Using Plant Part-AANs 

In ARTG applications, the appropriate term in bold in column 2 must be used. ARTG 

AANs are usually brief or abbreviated and the word order is always the same, e.g. "herb 

top fl.". 

On product labels, any appropriate term in column 3 or a term in bold in column 2 may 

be used. Note that label AANs need to be generally recognised and botanically correct 

terms, but can differ from the ARTG AAN in the following ways: 

(i) special names in may be used (if correct) e.g. instead of "fruit" ... "berry", 

"hip", "capsule", "legume", "follicle" and "pod" may be used 

(ii) the plural can be used, e.g. "leaves" 

(iii) word order can be changed and words can be written in full to achieve plain 

English, e.g. "flowering herb top" 

(iv) si mplifications may be approved in column 3, e.g. "flowering tops".



Additional information describing the plant part(s) may be given on labels, provided all 

the information required under the labelling order is present and the additional 

information is both correct and unlikely to be misleading to consumers. 

Where the additional label information indicates that the ingredient is unusual in some 

way, this information should also be stated in the ARTG application. For example, if a 

label claim is made that the Echinacea is "biodynamically grown" or that only "mature" 

rhizome is used, also state this as part of the ingredient name in the ARTG application. 

Where the additional label information does not indicate that the ingredient is unusual in 

any way for the particular herb species, this information need not be stated in the ARTG 

application. For example, if a label claim is made that the ingredient is made from the 

"flowering rosette herb" of Taraxacum officinale (dandelion) or the "vine stem" of 

Lonicera japonica, the usual names, "herb fl." and "stem", are sufficient to name the 

plant parts in the ARTG application. 

3.5.1.6 Combinations of Plant Parts 

It is only acceptable to use more than one plant part where there is an AAN for that 

combination, e.g. "root & rhizome", "whole plant" and "herb fruiting". In this case 

every part in that combination should be used in every batch of the product. It is the 

responsibility of the sponsor to ensure that the product has a consistent medicinal 

activity and this can mean that, even where certain combinations of parts are approved, 

each part should be used in similar proportions in each batch. 

Where there is not an AAN for a certain combination of plant parts, e.g. "leaf & root", 

then two separate ingredients must be named. For example: 

ingredient 1 dandelion root: "Taraxacum officinale root powder"; and 

ingredient 2 dandelion leaf: "Taraxacum officinale leaf powder". 

Application can be made for two or more plant parts of a certain herb species to be 

allowed to be interchanged (see 7). For a discussion of Medicinally Interchangeable 

Substances see sections 3.1.2.4 and 3.2.4 of the Introduction to the Herbal Substances 

AAN List. 

3.5.1.7 Changing the Plant Part 

In general, a change in the plant part(s) constitutes the use of a different ingredient and 

this creates a separate and distinct good under section 16 of the Therapeutic Goods 

Act. 

An alteration in the expression of the plant part, where there is no change in the part(s) 

used, is not a change of ingredient. 

Where it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the TGA that a change in plant part 

is botanically minor and medicinally insignificant, consideration may be given to the 

new herbal substance being accepted as an interchangeable ingredient ... see section 

3.1.2.4 of the Introduction to the Herbal Substances AAN List. As this type of 

interchangeable ingredient does not involve any change in the herb species, a less 

detailed submission than that described in section 3.1.2.4 could be sufficient.


3.5.1.8 Definitions 

For the purposed of naming plant parts in ARTG applications and on labels, note the 

following comments on the meaning of the TGA standard terminology. 

“Flower” refers both to flowers alone and to whole inflorescences, including 

branching flower stalks. Where present, leafy bracts may be included. 

Where leaves and stems are also included, use “herb flowering” or “herb top 

flowering” 

“Fruit” refers to the seed bearing structure of flowering plants including all types of 

simple, aggregate and multiple (compound) fruits. “Fruit” includes the seeds, all the 

surrounding tissue layers, any persistent bracts, the individual fruit stalk and may 

include any branching fruit stalks. 

Where leaves and stems are also included, use “herb fruiting” or “herb top 

fruiting”. 

Refer to the Plant Parts List for guidance in the correct optional use on 

labels, of terms such as “pod”, “capsule”, “nut” and “berry”. 

Some fruits, which contain very little tissue other than the seeds, are described 

in some pharmacopoeias as a fruit and in others as seeds, eg. the two-seeded 

schizocarp of the Umbelliferae (Apiaceae) family, which includes celery, 

parsley, carrot, coriander, cumin, anise and fennel. In ARTG applications 

name the schizocarp as “fruit/seed” and on labels use either “fruit” or “seed”. 

Other fruits which contain very little tissue other than the seeds, are usually 

described in pharmacopoeias as seeds and should be named as “seed”, for 

example: 

- single-seeded caryopsis eg Graminae (Poaceae) grass family - 

wheat, rice, oats, corn etc 

- four-seeded carcerulus schizocarps 

eg Labiatae (Lamiaceae) family - mint, basil etc 

eg Boraginaceae family - comfrey, borage etc 

- many-seeded lomentum schizocarps 

eg pea pods that fragment 

- single-seeded achenes eg buttercup 

- cypselas with no pappus eg some Compositae (Asteraceae) 

Conifers: The seed-bearing body of conifers is termed a “cone”. Where the 

cone scales are fleshy and join around the seeds, as in the case of Juniperus, 

use “fruit” in the ARTG application with the option of “berry” on the label. 

Fungi: Use “mushroom” to refer to the mushroom-shaped spore-bearing bodies of 

Basidiomycetes fungi and use “fruiting body” to refer to all other types of 

spore-bearing bodies of fungi. 

“Herb” refers to all the aerial parts present at harvesting where only vegetative parts 

are present and, therefore, the reproductive structures of flowers and fruits are not 

present. 

Where the plant is immature consider “sprout” and “herb young”. 

Where flowers are always present and fruits are rarely present use “herb 

flowering”. 

Where fruits are always present and flowers are rarely present use “herb 

fruiting”.


Where flowers and fruits are always present use “herb flowering fruiting”. 

“Herb top” refers to the terminal ends of the branches where only vegetative parts are 

present at harvesting and, therefore, the reproductive structures of flowers and fruits 

are not present. Where the plant is a tree or woody shrub use “leaf & twig”/ 

Where flowers are always present and fruits are rarely present use “herb top 

flowering”. 

Where fruits are always present and flowers are rarely present use “herb top 

fruiting”. 

Where flowers and fruits are always present use “herb top flowering fruiting”. 

“Leaf” refers to the leaf blade, leaf stalk, axillary bud and stipules. In compound 

leaves the branching stalks between leaflets are included. “Leaf” may also be used to 

describe the leaf-like structures of simple plants such as mosses. 

Where stem, branch ends, blowers or fruit are included refer to “herb”, “herb 

top” and related terms. 

Where the leaf has a specialised form, more accurate terms should be used, eg. 

“clove” and “bulb”. 

Seaweeds: Use “thallus blade” in the ARTG applications and “blade” or 

“frond” on the label. 

“Root” refers to all or most of the rooting system such as: 

(a) fibrous roots; 

(b) tap roots with any lateral roots and nodules. 

Where only some of the rooting system is used, consider “root lateral”, “root 

aerial” and “root nodule”. 

Where an underground stem is also used name each part, eg. “root & rhiz.”. 

“Stem” refers to the central stem(s) and the branches. 

Where the stem has a specialised form, more accurate terms should be used, 

eg. “corm”, “rhizome”, “stolon”, “tuber”. 

Where other plant parts are included refer to “herb”, “herb top”, “whole 

plant” and related terms. 

“Whole plant” refers to the entire plant body such as: 

(a) aerial and underground plant parts, 

(b) fungi: hyphae (mycelium) and fruiting bodies, 

(c) seaweeds: entire thallus ie holdfast, stipe, blades/fronds and 

reproductive structures. 

Where only aerial parts are used refer to “herb”, “herb top” and related terms.

Key to the Plant Parts AAN Lists 

Character Meaning Comments 

refer Refer to the given term(s) for 

more information 

~ Only use the term if it is 

applicable. 

/ The term may be formed using 

any one of the given words. 

* The meaning of the AAN is 

broader than the strict botanical 

definition. 

Caution: alternative terms are 

suggested and usually include 

the correct AAN, but this cannot 

be guaranteed. 

Eg. “leaf or ~frond” in column 3 

means that “leaf” would usually 

be the suitable AAN but that in 

cases where the leaf is also 

termed a frond, such as in ferns, 

the label could state either “leaf” 

or “frond”. 

Eg. “seed skin/~bran” indicates 

that “seed skin’ and, in some 

circumstances, “seed bran” are 

both acceptable AANs.

of this and related terms in

3.6 HERBAL SUBSTANCES PLANT PREPARATIONS 

AAN LIST 


This list provides Australian Approved Names (AANs) for plant preparations. These 

names should be used where plant preparation terms are required to complete the AAN 

for a herbal substance named in ARTG applications and on product labels. 

Refer to the Introduction to the Herbal Substances AAN List for guidance in using 

plant preparation-AANs as part of the complete AAN for naming a herbal substance. 

Refer to this section and Guidelines to the Expression of Herbal Ingredients in ARTG 

Applications and on Labels (HIEG) for assistance in fully naming and quantifying 

herbal ingredients. These guidelines are available through the TGA Information Officer. 

3.6.1.1 The Plant Preparation-AAN 

In ARTG applications, plant preparation-AANs can be a single term such as "fresh", 

"dry", "powder" and "oil essential". In contrast, non-oil extracts have three or four parts 

that make the complete preparation name, as follows: 

a. the type of preparation, e.g. "ext. dry. conc." 

b. the extract ratio and solvent details, e.g. "(3:1 in 55% E:W)" 

c. the type of raw material* used, e.g. "dry" or "fresh" [preceded by "EQUIV.", 

the species-AHN and the plant part-AAN] 

d. where standardised*, the name of the component against which the 

preparation is standardised, where the name is a chemical-AAN preceded by 

"EQUIV." e.g. "EQUIV. hypericin" or an HCN, preceded by "EQUIV." and 

the species-AHN. 

* Where additional label claims are made, the ARTG application may need to include 

additional statements of fresh or dry weight equivalence and of component content. 

Excipient ingredients are named completely without solvent details. 

On product labels, plant preparation-AANs for use are much simpler. The label-AAN 

for the preparation type is often a single word, e.g. "extract". It is usual to identify the 

raw material used without repeating the herb species or plant part names and it is often 

possible to avoid repetition between ingredients by using an introductory line, such as 

"Contains extracts equivalent to dried:" (refer to the HIEG). It is recommended that 

neither the extraction ratio nor the solvent details are included on product labels. 

Where the above guidelines have been followed and label space is still limiting, certain 

abbreviations are approved to name the preparation type on labels. Abbreviations 

should be selected in the order shown, e.g. "extract stand." should be used if possible 

instead of "ext. stand.".


3.6.1.2 Finding Plant Preparation-AANs 

The Plant Preparations AAN List is presented in six columns. Names that are part of the 

preparation-AAN for use in ARTG applications are referred to below as ARTG-AANs: 

Col. Content of column Comment 

1 Common usage and technical 

terms for plant preparations, 

arranged in alphabetical order. 

2 ARTG-AAN: preparation type. 

3 ARTG-AAN format for naming 

the final extraction ratio and 

solvents. 

4 ARTG-AAN used in naming the 

equivalent dry or fresh weight 

of raw herbal material used or 

that would be needed to make 

the ingredient: "dry", "fresh", 

"juice dry" or "juice fresh". 

5 ARTG-AAN format for naming 

the amount of a component in 

the ingredient. 

. Do NOT use. 

. Label terms are found in column 6. 

. Required as the 2nd part of the ARTG-AAN for 

extracted ingredients (other than oil and fat). 

. Give the final extraction ratio (not the native extraction 

ratio). A range may be acceptable. Refer ‘Extraction 

ratio’. 

. State the solvent name(s) and concentration(s) as set 

out in the 3.6.1.3.2 ‘Extraction solvents’. 

. Solvent details are only required for active ingredients. 

. Required as the 3rd part of the ARTG-AAN for most* 

extracted ingredients to state the amount of dry/fresh 

weight of raw herbal material actually used to make the 

ingredient. (*Optional for oil, fat and highly dilute 

so-called flower essences.) Refer 3.6.1.3.2. 

‘Quantifying Herbal Substances’. 

. Also required if a label claim is made concerning the 

amount of dry/fresh weight of raw herbal material 

needed to make the ingredient. 

. Note that the statement begins with "EQUIV.", then the 

herb species-AHN and plant part-AAN are stated 

before the ARTG-AAN is used. 

. Required as the last part of the ARTG-AAN for all 

standardised ingredients. 

. CAUTION: contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator 

before 

claiming standardisation of either the ingredient or the 

product. 

. Also required if a label claim is made concerning the 

amount of a component in the ingredient. 

. Make separate statements where the amount of more 

than one component is claimed. 

6 Label-AAN: preparation type. . The equivalent ARTG-AAN term is in column 2. 

. Where the ingredient is extracted (other than oil and 

fat), 

the complete label-AAN also includes the dry/fresh raw 

material used to make the ingredient - refer column 4. 

. Where the ingredient is claimed to be standardised, 

the complete label-AAN also includes the component 

against which the ingredient is standardised - refer 

column 5.


3.6.1.3 Selecting the Plant Preparation-AAN 

Details of the plant preparation should be obtained from the raw material supplier. 

Ensure that the term selected accurately describes the preparation used and that only 

the preparation named is used in each batch of the product. 

3.6.1.3.1 The Preparation-Type AAN 

Find the preparation type in column 1 of the Plant Preparations AAN List, e.g. "tincture" 

or "oil fixed". 

Each of the more usual preparation types are defined below. In these definitions 

“herbal material” refers to the fresh or dry plant part(s) used as raw material. 

The following abbreviations should be used in ARTG applications and may be used to 

name ingredients on labels: 

Concentrated conc. fixed fix.* 

Decoction decoc.* infused inf.* 

Dissolved diss. liquid liq. 

Distillate dist. standardised stand. 

Essential ess.* tincture tinct.* 

Extract ext.* 

� on labels, abbreviate only where space is restrictive. 

Definitions 

A “decoction” means an aqueous extract obtained by boiling the herbal material, 

which is usually hard plant parts such as roots, bark and woody fruits, and decanting, 

straining or filtering to separate the fluid. (Compare with “infusion”.) Ethanol and 

glycerol are often used as preservatives. 

A “dry” preparation means a preparation where the herbal material is dried by not 

powdered. The material is often cut and crushed, but remains identifiable under close 

visual inspection. 

An “extract” means a preparation containing selected active components of the herbal 

material obtained by dissolving the components in suitable solvent(s). Extracts are 

usually concentrated by evaporating some or all of the solvent, with or without 

subsequent dilution with an inert solid, to achieve the desired concentration; compare 

with “tincture”. 

A “concentrated extract” is prepared from more than 1 part of the dry herbal 

material for each 1 part of extract, eg more than 1g of dry herb is used to make 

each 1mL of liquid extract or each 1g of dry or soft extract. 

A “dry extract” is prepared by evaporating a liquid extract to dryness. The 

dried extract is often adjusted to the desired strength by dilution with an inert 

diluent such as lactose, starch or, where the dry extractive is deliquescent, the 

absorbent diluent calcium phosphate.


A “liquid extract” is prepared either (a) by maceration or percolation of the 

herbal material with suitable solvent(s) and separation of the fluid fraction, 

often by straining or filtering or (b) by the addition of liquid diluents(s) to a 

soft or dry extract. In the first case, the liquid extract is usually concentrated 

to the desired strength by evaporating some of the solvent. 

A “soft extract” is prepared by evaporating the solvent from a liquid extract 

until a soft mass is obtained. 

An “infusion” means an aqueous extract obtained by pouring water onto herbal 

material and allowing it to stand before decanting, straining or filtering. Usually, 

boiling water is used on herbal material that does not include hard or wood parts and 

the mixture stands for 10-15 minutes. (Compare with a “decoction”). Ethanol and 

glycerol are often used as preservatives. 

A “juice” is a liquid obtained from plant parts with a high water content, by 

mechanical methods such as pressing. 

An “oil” means a compound substance, which is liquid at 20 0 C, insoluble or only 

slightly soluble in water, soluble in organic solvents and prepared by pressing, 

distillation, extraction or other methods as defined under herbal substance. 

An “essential oil” is largely or completely composed of volatile oils usually 

obtained through one or more distillations with steam, water alone or water 

with alcohol. The essential oils of Citrus peels are obtained by pressing. 

Citrus juice “essence” oils are distilled. Essential oil “absolutes” are prepared 

through an extraction in a non-polar solvent and s second extraction in 

alcohol. Volatile herbal oils are a complex mixture of hydrocarbons and 

oxidation products of hydrocarbons. They gradually evaporate at room 

temperature and are often aromatic. 

A “fixed oil” is non-volatile and is usually prepared from herbal material such 

as seeds, by pressing or by extraction with a non-polar solvent such as hexane. 

Fixed oils are composed of lipids or lipid-soluble carbohydrates and are prone 

to becoming rancid on oxidation. 

An “infused oil” is initially absorbed from the herbal material, such as petals, 

into an oil or fat base, then recovered through successive extractions in 

alcohol to obtain a complex mixture including oils, resins and oleoresins. 

Several methods may be employed, including infusion into thin layers of oil to 

obtain a pomade (enfleurage), infusion into volatile oil carried in a current of 

warm air (pneumatic) and digestion in melted fat. 

A “powder” means a preparation where the herbal material is dried and ground to a 

powder. Seed flour is a powder. No plant fragments remain identifiable by visual 

inspection. 

A “spagyric” means a combination of preparations made from the same herbal 

material, where the preparations are usually two or more of the following: 

a. essential oil 

b. tincture, extract or distillate of an extract or tincture 

c. spagyric ash


A “spagyric ash” means the ash obtained from combustion of a herbal residue 

following removal of active components through processes such as extraction 

and distillation. The whole ash or the water-soluble fraction of the ash is then 

combined with the products from each stage of preparation. 

A “tincture” means an alcoholic or aqueous-alcoholic liquid, containing selected 

active components of herbal material, and obtained by percolation or maceration of 

the herbal material in alcohol or a water-alcohol mixture. Usually 1 part of the dry 

herbal material is used to make 4 or more parts of the tincture. Tinctures are 

sometimes obtained by dilution of a liquid, soft or dry extract. In contrast, “extracts” 

are more concentrated and “infusions” and “decoctions” are extracted in water. 

3.6.1.3.2 The Extraction Ratio-AAN and Solvent-AAN 

Where the ingredient is extracted, the final extraction ratio is usually required and, if so, 

this will be indicated in column 2. Note that where a preparation is a "concentrate", the 

final extraction ratio should be expressed as a ratio of "x:1" and a dilute preparation as 

"1:x". 

Extraction ratio 

The concentration of preparations such as tinctures, extracts, spagyrics, infusions and 

decoctions should be given as the ratio of the weight of the herbal material used to the 

quantity of the final ingredient preparations. For example, where 2 Kg of dry plant 

material is used to make 1L of extract, the extraction ratio is (2:1). 

herbal raw material : final preparation 

eg extract ingredient 

(Kg) : (Kg or L) 

(g) : (g or mL) 

(mg) : (mg or mcL) 

Dry herbal material: In most cases the herbal material is dried before further stages in 

commercial manufacture. The extraction ratio is assumed to express the dry weight of 

the raw material. 

(1:10) 1 part of dry herb used to make 10 parts of preparation 

eg 1g dry herb to 10mL tincture 

(1:1) 1 part of dry herb used to make 1 part of preparation 

eg 1g of dry herb to 1g of dry extract or 

1g of dry herb to 1mL of liquid extract 

(3:1) 3 parts of dry herb used to make 1 part of a concentrated preparation 

eg 3g of dry herb to 1g of dry extract or 

3g of dry herb to 1mL or liquid extract 

Fresh herbal material: Where fresh herbal material was used as the starting material, 

the extraction ratio is stated in terms of the fresh weight of herbal material used. 

(fresh 1:5) 1 part of fresh herb used to make 5 parts of preparation 

(fresh 4:1) 4 parts of fresh herb made into 1 part of a concentrated 

preparation


Variation in extraction ratio: In some circumstances, approval may be given for a 

single ingredient to encompass a limited range of extraction ratios. In such cases there 

should be no change in the herb species, plant part(s), type and concentration of 

solvents, type of diluents used and equivalent dry/fresh weight. The quantity of the 

diluent may vary and this should be indicated as a range when quantifying the product 

excipients. 

(1:8-10) 1 part of dry herb used to make 8 to 10 parts of 

preparation 

(fresh 2-3:1) 2 to 3 parts of fresh herb made into 1 part of a 

concentrated preparation 

Where an active ingredient is extracted, the name and concentration of the solvents used 

to extract the herbal material is usually required and, if so, this will be indicated in 

column 2. Note that where a preparation is an infusion or a decoction, that the solvent is 

always water and expressed as "in 100% W". Where the preparation is a tincture, 

alcohol with or without water is used, e.g. 40% ethanol in water would be expressed as 

"in 40% E:W". 

Extraction solvents 

Details of the solvent(s) used in extraction should be given where the herbal 

substance is an active ingredient and is an extract, spagyric or tincture. Where the 

ingredient is named as an infusion or a decoction it is understood that the solvent is 

water and this need not be stated. 

ARTG applications: The name and relative proportion of solvent(s) used in 

extraction should be stated when detailing these active ingredients. The solvent 

details should be written in the brackets following the extraction ratio, eg (5:1 in 

45% E:W). Any residual solvents should also be named and quantified as 

excipients. 

Where there is inadequate space to describe the solvent(s) within the "name" line of 

the ARTG application, attach this information as a signed statement clearly 

identifying the ingredient(s) to which the solvent(s) relate. 

Labels: Solvent details need not be given on labels. Approval is required for label 

disclosure of any excipients, including residual solvents. Label disclosure of product 

alcohol content is recommended and approval is given routinely. 

Solvent abbreviations: The following solvent name abbreviations may be used only 

in conjunction with the extraction ratio. Where no abbreviation is given, an AAN 

should be used. Please note that some of these solvents are potentially dangerous, 

and are required to be completely eliminated from the final herbal substance. 

Acetone Acet glycerol (glycerin) glyc 

alcohol (state type) methyl ethyl ketone MEK 

aqueous (water) W propylene pr-gl


benzene Benz toluene tol 

carbon dioxide CO2 water – potable W 

ethanol E water – purified W 

ether - solvent Ether 

The relative solvent concentrations should be stated as percentages: 

one solvent: eg "in 100% W" 

two solvents: eg "in 45% E:W" 

The percentage figure refers to the proportion 

of the first named solvent. 

three solvents: eg "in glyc:E:W 15:20:QS" 

The % sign is not shown. 

The last of the solvents used to make up the 

total volume is quantified as "QS". 

Where a series of extractions occurs, each solvent mix is detailed in turn (see last 

example below). 

Examples: 

(1:4 in 15% E:W) 

A 1:4 aqueous-alcohol tincture made using 15% ethanol in water. Any 

preservative, such as additional ethanol, should not be named or quantified 

here. 

(fresh 1:1 in 27% pr-gl:ether) 

A 1:1 fresh plant extract made using 27% propylene glycol in ether. Any 

diluent, such as lactose or ethanol and water, should not be named here. 

(6:1 in glyc:E:W 10:25:QS) 

A 6:1 concentrated extract made using 10% glycerol and 25% ethanol in 

water. 

(4:1 in 35% E:W; in 40% p-gl:E) 

A 4:1 concentrated extract made in two stages: initially using 35% ethanol in 

water and then using 40% propylene glycol in ethanol. 

Quantifying Herbal Substances 

Quantities 

ARTG applications: When completing an ARTG application give, on separate lines 

of entry, the quantity or strength of: 

a. the preparation in the product; and 

b. the equivalent dry or fresh weight of the herbal raw material, where 

the substance is an extract, tincture, spagyric, infusion or decoction; 

and 

c. the standardised active component, where applicable.


Labels: Complete quantification, as above, is not required on labels (see A8c and B1-10). 

Units 

Use metric units as follows: 

a. With discrete dosage forms, give the quantity per dosage unit 

eg "250 mg" per tablet, "1.1 mL" per capsule 

b. With non-discrete dosage forms, give the strength per mg or mL 

eg "250 mg/g" of powder, "300 mcL/mL" of liquid 

Use "1 g/g" or "1 mL/mL" where there is only one ingredient in 

the product. 

Calculating the equivalent dry/fresh weight 

Calculate the equivalent dry/fresh weight as follows: 

extraction ratio X quantity of = equivalent 

[as fraction] ext./tinct. dry/fresh weight 

Use comparable units (see A6b), for example: 

- quantity of tincture in mcL gives dry/fresh weight in mg; 

- quantity of dry extract in mg gives dry/fresh weight in mg. 

eg. Name: Gentiana lutea root tinct. (1:5 in 40% E:W) 

Quantity: 200 Units: mcL/mL 

Name: EQUIV. Gentiana lutea root dry 

Quantity: 40 Units: mg/mL 

1/5 X 200 mcL/mL = 40 mg/mL 

eg. Name: Anthemis nobilis flower ext. dry (fresh 1:1 in 35% E:W) 

Quantity: 500 Units: mg/g 

Name: EQUIV. Anthemis nobilis flower fresh 


1/1 X 500 mg/g = 500 mg/g 

eg. Name: Rhamnus purshianus bark ext. dry conc. (3:1 in 30% E:W) 


Name: EQUIV. Rhamnus purshianus bark dry 


3/1 X 70 mg/g = 210 mg/g 

Range in Extraction Ratio: Where approved (see A6b), an extract with a range of 

extraction ratio would be expressed similarly to the following in the ARTG 

application:


Name: Rhamnus purshianus stem bark ext. liq. conc. 

(3-2:1 in 45% E:W) 

Quantity: 400-600 Units: mg 

Name: EQUIV. Rhamnus purshianus stem bark dry 

Quantity: 1.2 Units: g 

Note that the equivalent dry weight is 1.2 g per dosage unit, for both (a) 400mg of 

(3:1) extract and (b) 600mg of (2:1) extract. 

Where the quantity of an excipient varies with the range in an active ingredient 

extraction ratio, this range should be expressed separately where quantifying the 

excipient. 

3.6.1.3.3 The Raw-Material-AAN 

Where the ingredient is a non-oil extract or is a juice concentrate, the type of raw 

material used to make the ingredient should be named as indicated in column 3. Choose 

the appropriate term from: "dry", "fresh", "juice dry" or "juice fresh". 

The type of raw material used is part of the complete preparation-AAN and the quantity 

used is a measure of the strength of the ingredient. 

This information is given as a separate statement which repeats the herb species-AHN 

and plant part-AAN, e.g. "EQUIV. Lavandula spica herb top fl. fresh". 

Some sponsors choose to make a product claim concerning the amount of dry or fresh 

weight of raw herbal material that would be needed to make the ingredient. For 

instance, where an ingredient is made from dry herbal material, an equivalent fresh 

weight claim could be made, or vice versa. Similarly, the name of an oil ingredient 

usually does not need to include either a dry or a fresh weight equivalence statement, but 

the sponsor could choose to make claims concerning one or both of these. In these 

cases, the claims should be included in the ARTG application statement of the herbal 

ingredient using the same format as in the example above. 

3.6.1.3.4 The Component HCN or AAN 

Where an ingredient is claimed to be standardised, the component used as the marker for 

standardisation must be stated as part of the complete preparation-AAN. The quantity 

of that chemical component is a measure of the strength of the ingredient. Name the 

component with a herbal component-HCN (refer to the Herbal Component Names List) 

or with a chemical-AAN (refer to the Chemical Substances AAN List). 

This information is given as a separate statement, e.g. "EQUIV. echinocoside". 

Some sponsors choose to make a product claim concerning the amount of one or more 

components in a herbal ingredient that is not standardised. These claims should be 

included in the ARTG application statement of the herbal ingredient using the same 

format as in the example above but, in this case, the preparation should not be claimed to 

be standardised or include "stand." in the name. 

CAUTION: contact the Herb Names Co-ordinator before making any claim that 

an ingredient or a product is standardised.


3.6.1.4 Using Plant Preparation-AANs 

In ARTG applications, the preparation-AAN is built up using the appropriate term in 

column 2, followed by the information indicated in columns 3, 4 and 5. For example, 

"powder" could be the complete preparation-AAN. In contrast, where a standardised 

extract is used, the complete ARTG-preparation-AAN could be: 

… ext. dry conc. stand. (6:1 in 35% E:W) 

… EQUIV. ....... dry 

… EQUIV. ....... arbutin 

On product labels, the preparation-AAN is built up using the appropriate term in 

column 6, followed by the information indicated only in columns 4 and 5. In the first 

example above, "powder" would also be the complete preparation label-AAN. In the 

second example, the label-preparation-AAN could be: 

........... extract standardised 

EQUIV. ........... dry 

EQUIV. arbutin 

On labels, the herb species name and plant part need not be repeated and the word order 

may be changed to achieve plain English, so that the above example could become: 

* "Contains Arctostaphylos uva-ursi extract equiv. to dry leaf ...mg 

standardised to contain ... mg arbutin"; or 

* as one among several ingredients: 

"Contains standardised extracts equivalent to dried: 

Arctostaphylos uva-ursi leaf ...mg 

(equiv. arbutin ...mg) 


Additional information describing the plant preparation may be given on labels, 

provided all the information required under the labelling order is present and the 

additional information is both correct and unlikely to be misleading to consumers. 

Such additional label information should also be stated in the ARTG application. For 

example, if a label claim is made that the dry preparation is "freeze dried" also state this 

as part of the ingredient name in the ARTG application. Also refer to 3c and 3d above 

for examples of additional claims concerning the quantity of a component in the herbal 

ingredient and the equivalent dry or fresh weight of raw herbal material used to make 

the ingredient. 

3.6.1.6 Combinations of Plant Preparations 

It is usually NOT acceptable to combine preparations. 

However, where there is no cell structure to affect bioavailability, "dry" and "powder" 

preparations are considered to be the same preparation. This is reflected in names such 

as the substance-AHS "Acacia" which refers to either dry or powdered preparations of 

the gum. Similarly "juice dry" refers to dry or powdered juice and "extract dry" refers to 

dry or powdered extracts.


3.6.1.7 Changing the Plant Preparation 

In general, a change in the plant preparation constitutes the use of a different ingredient 

and this creates a separate and distinct good under section 16 of the Therapeutic 

Goods Act, 1989. 

Where the ARTG record names a range in extraction ratios, extracts made from the 

same herb species and the same plant part that are extracted with the same solvent(s) 

with the solvents in the same relative concentration may be used interchangeably 

provided either: 

a. if not standardised, the equivalent dry or fresh weight of the raw 

material herb used is the same; or 

b. if standardised, the quantity of the standardised component is the same. 

An alteration in the expression of the plant preparation, where there is no change in the 

preparation used, is not a change of ingredient. 

Where it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the TGA that a change in plant 

preparation is medicinally insignificant, consideration may be given to the new herbal 

substance being accepted as an interchangeable ingredient ... see sections 2.4 and 6.4 of 

the Introduction to the Herbal Substances AAN List. As this type of interchangeable 

ingredient does not involve any change in the herb species or plant part, a less detailed 

submission than that described in section 2.4 could be sufficient. 

It is the responsibility of the sponsor to ensure that the product has a consistent 

medicinal activity.

3.7 HERBAL COMPONENTS AAN LIST 

This list provides Australian Approved Names (AANs) for components of herbal 

ingredients. These names should be used in ARTG applications and on labels where 

names are required to identify marker components of standardised herbal ingredients 

and where claims are made concerning the strength or concentration of components in 

herbal ingredients. 

The status of each name, as a chemical Australian Approved Name (AAN) or a Herbal 

Component Name (HCN), is given in column 2 below. Both AANs and HCNs may 

be used to name components that are part of herbal ingredients. This table contains all 

HCNs approved at the date of publication and more commonly used herbal component 

chemical-AANs selected from the Chemical Substances AAN List. 

HCNs variously name (a) single chemicals such as "cascaroside A" and (b) groups of 

chemicals such as "cascarosides calculated as cascaroside A" (BP93), 

"hydroxyanthracene derivatives calculated as cascaroside A" (USP23) and 

"hydroxyanthracene glycosides calculated as cascaroside A" (BP93). 

HCNs and AANs should only be used to name a component of a herbal ingredient 

where the component complies with the physical and chemical identification 

characteristics set out in the reference monograph. Note that where a group of 

chemicals is named, it is common for the monograph to set out the relative proportion 

of component chemicals. 

The Herb Names Co-ordinator should always be contacted to ensure that the 

component name referred to is appropriate for specific extracts, especially in the case 

of groups of components. 

Monographs have been referred to in the following publications: 

1993

HIEG Described in the Guidelines to the Expression of Herbal 

Ingredients in ARTG Applications and on Labels. 

Recognised synonyms for particular components may be used, however ONLY when 

the approved HCN is used in the appropriate position in ARTG applications and on 

labels
