FAQs
Is BP the same as Ph. Eur.?
For substances with a European monograph, the BP reproduces the Ph. Eur. text, so requirements are the same. The BP also contains UK national monographs.
Who publishes the British Pharmacopoeia?
The British Pharmacopoeia Commission, on behalf of the UK's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency.
Does a BP COA need to state the edition?
It should. Monographs change between editions, so the COA should identify which edition the material was tested against.
