Medical Disclaimer.

Please Read Carefully

1. General Information Only

The information on this website does not constitute medical advice. It is intended for general informational purposes only. Nothing on this website should be construed as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment from a qualified healthcare provider. Always seek the guidance of your doctor or other qualified health professional with any questions you may have regarding your health or a medical condition.

2. Consultation Required

A telehealth consultation with an AHPRA-registered practitioner is required before any treatment can be considered. During this consultation, the practitioner will assess your individual medical history, current health status, and suitability for treatment. All treatment decisions are made at the discretion of the consulting practitioner based on your individual medical history and circumstances.

3. No Guarantee of Prescription

Alternative Balance does not guarantee that a prescription will be issued. Not all consultations result in a prescription. The consulting practitioner may determine that treatment is not clinically appropriate for your circumstances, and this decision rests solely with the practitioner.

4. Individual Results Vary

Individual results vary. Assessment findings do not guarantee a particular outcome. The effectiveness of any prescribed medication depends on many factors, including individual physiology, the nature and severity of your individual health circumstances, and adherence to the prescribed treatment plan.

5. Prescription-Only Medicines

If deemed medically appropriate, any management plan recommended by your clinician must be followed in accordance with their directions. Where a prescription is issued, it must be dispensed by a registered Australian pharmacy. Do not share prescribed medications with others.

6. AHPRA-Registered Practitioners

All practitioners who provide consultations through Alternative Balance are registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Practitioner registration can be verified through the AHPRA public register at www.ahpra.gov.au.

7. Not a Substitute for Ongoing Care

Our telehealth consultations are not intended to replace the relationship you have with your regular general practitioner or specialist. You should continue all existing treatments and medications unless otherwise directed by a qualified healthcare professional. Consult your regular healthcare provider before making any changes to your treatment plan.

8. Suitability and Contraindications

Prescribed medications are not suitable for everyone. They may be contraindicated in individuals with certain medical conditions, those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or those taking specific concurrent medications. Your consulting practitioner will assess suitability during your consultation.

9. Emergency Services
Alternative Balance is not an emergency service. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 000 immediately. Do not use this website or our services in an emergency situation.

10. Advertising of Prescription Medicines

We do not advertise specific prescription medicines to the public in accordance with Australian regulatory requirements.
