All new texts and texts that have undergone technical revisions are published in Pharmeuropa for public consultation. The deadline for comments on Pharmeuropa 32.1 is 31 March 2020.
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 European Pharmacopoeia 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. The 22 drafts published in Pharmeuropa 32.1 are:
