AUTHORITY PRESCRIPTION
-
Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS.
Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health.
Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number).
Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication.
But still pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has the necessary Authority code.

Information
Check Your SymptomsA number of factors contribute to vaginal infections, which result in unpleasant vaginal symptoms including unsual discharge, odour and itching.
Try Canesten Self TestCanesten Vaginal pH Self Test links vaginal pH and symptoms to a probable condition: first, the easy-to-use swab helps you to find out whether or not your vaginal pH level is elevated. Then, this result should be interpreted in conjunction with the symptoms table on the pack, helping you to request treatment or consult with a doctor if needed.
Thrush Or Something Else?Although thrush is common, it is not always easy to identify if you have thrush or if it is something else. An easy way to help you diagnose if it is thrush or something else, is by testing your vaginal pH. With your Canesten Vaginal pH Self Test, you can test your pH, helping you to diagnose common vaginal infections like thrush.
Directions For Use 
Before UseEnsure you are in a position that is comfortable to insert the Canesten Vaginal pH self test swab. An easy and convenient position is with one on the toilet seat.

Finally!
I am so glad this product has finally landed in Australia, I have tried it twice. The first time confirmed I had thrush and the second time I was clear. I love this test, its easy to use and the results are quick. Defiantly saved me a trip to the doctor.

Doesn’t work.
I went to a GP and had a swab test done. And in the mean time I took this test to know the results quicker my self. Test said it was good, but GP test said it was not.
