Is Gotu Kola right for you?
Common questions
Is Gotu Kola allowed in Australian supplements?
Yes. Centella asiatica is item 1273 on Australia's permitted ingredients list (Schedule 1 of the Therapeutic Goods (Permissible Ingredients) Determination (No. 2) 2026), so it can be used in listed medicines. A separate, more tightly controlled listing covers its use in skin creams. Being permitted means it can go into a listed medicine. It doesn't mean any product or claim has government approval.
Why doesn't this page say what Gotu Kola does?
Because so far we only have regulatory information. It confirms gotu kola is a permitted ingredient, but we haven't found a matching permitted health claim or clinical study we're comfortable relying on. We'd rather tell you that plainly than borrow a claim from somewhere else. If you'd like to know whether it suits you, our naturopaths can talk it through.
