23 May 2024 - The Department of Health and Aged Care has completed the digitisation, and is making available for public access a selection of old printed versions of the Schedule of Pharmaceutical Benefits from 1951 to 2002.
These historical schedules (published in pdf format) can now be found on the PBS website.
Editor's note: In time, the initial listing date of all PBS listed medicines will be entered in the MAESTrO Database where possible. Users will be able to determine the time period that all medicines spent in the F1 formulary (period from the date of initial PBS listing to the date of entry in the F2 formulary).
