May 2025 Tender Notification

We are currently seeking feedback through consultation on possible brand changes that may occur for medicines through the annual tender.

This consultation was released on 28 May 2025 and closes at 4 pm on 16 June 2025. As part of this, there have been some changes to our usual timeframes. We are still working through evaluation of items included in the 2023/24 and 2024/25 Invitation to Tender and expect to announce these decisions over the coming months. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we improve our processes.

For products included in the 2023/24 and 2024/25 Invitation to Tender where no announcement has yet been made, a decision is still pending subject to Pharmac Board (or its delegate) approval. We will keep you informed of any updates regarding such tender products as decisions are made.
