In this series of articles, the authors provide an understanding about the need for pharmacopoeia compliance and practical guidance to assist those who perform this work.
Compliance with requirements published by pharmacopoeias around the world is a legal and regulatory requirement in those countries and regions in which the pharmacopoeia is applicable. Awareness and understanding of this need for pharmacopoeia compliance is crucial.
There is often insufficient understanding, however, by stakeholders at all levels of the need to comply with requirements in the pharmacopoeias. This situation can lead to a lack of appropriate attention and resources allocated to ensure compliance.
This series of articles were written to provide a common understanding and to detail practical ways that pharmacopoeia compliance may be addressed.
