Hi Team,

We are an eCommerce agency based in New Zealand and Australia. We do development work for an Australia based online chemist/pharmacy. They want to list their products in Google Shopping AU.

However, I see here:
http://support.google.com/merchants/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=161791
that Prescription drugs cannot be listed in AU based feeds.

My question is, is there an attribute we can set in the feed for their non-prescription products to enable those to be listed but not list the prescription drugs?

I see that currently many others seem to have done this based on their listings:
http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&tbm=shop&q=panadol&oq=panadol&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&gs_l=products-cc.3..0l10.8859.9598.0.9693.7.6.0.0.0.0.196.386.0j2.2.0...0.0.
in Google Shopping AU.

Are we best to just submit the full feed and then remove products as/when Google ask us to (seems to be the best option in many cases)?

Look foward to hearing from you thanks as Google make it almost impossible to get answers to Feed questions outside this forum.

Many thanks.

Kind Regards,
