History edit The regulation of medicinal products by officials in the United Kingdom dates back to the reign of King Henry VIII (14911547). Where substances are protected by letters patent, their inclusion in the pharmacopoeia neither conveys, nor implies, licence to manufacture. In the pharmacopoeia, certain drugs and preparations are included regardless of the existence of actual or potential patentrights. The monographs of the European Pharmacopoeia (as amended by Supplements published by the Council of Europe) are reproduced either in the British Pharmacopoeia, or in the associated edition of the British Pharmacopoeia (Veterinary). Legal basis edit The British Pharmacopoeia is published on behalf of the Health Ministers of the United Kingdom on the recommendation of the Commission on Human Medicines, in accordance with section 99(6) of the Medicines Act 1968, and notified in draft to the European Commission (EC) in accordance with Directive 9834EEC. Inclusion of a substance in a pharmacopoeia does not indicate that it is either safe or effective for the treatment of any disease. Pharmacopoeial standards are compliance requirements that is, they provide the means for an independent judgement as to the overall quality of an article, and apply throughout the shelf-life of a product.


Together with the British National Formulary (BNF), the British Pharmacopoeia defines the UKs pharmaceutical standards. The British Pharmacopoeia is an important statutory component in the control of medicines which complements and assists the licensing and inspection processes of the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) of the United Kingdom. Pharmacopoeial standards are publicly available and legally enforceable standards of quality for medicinal products and their constituents. It is an annually published collection of quality standards for UK medicinal substances. The British Pharmacopoeia ( BP ) is the national pharmacopoeia of the United Kingdom.
