Pharmeuropa 34.1 just released

All new European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) texts and texts that have undergone technical revisions are published in Pharmeuropa for public consultation. The deadline for comments on Pharmeuropa 34.1 is 31 March 2022.

Users and interested parties are welcome to comment on these drafts. It should be noted that:

although draft monographs must not be regarded as official standards, they will, once adopted by the Ph. Eur. Commission at a later date, become applicable and legally binding standards for the products concerned in all Ph. Eur. member states;
if general texts are not legally binding per se, they become mandatory when referred to in a monograph. Changes to general texts may therefore impact monographs.

It is therefore extremely important that users provide feedback on such drafts.

Comments made after adoption of the text and/or publication in the Ph. Eur. will be too late to be considered. Users may then be in a position where their product is not compliant with the Ph. Eur. monograph, which is a legal standard in Europe. This could ultimately lead to a situation where a product can no longer be marketed in Europe.

So don’t miss this opportunity to provide your comments.
