Programme overview

The procedure for the Certification of Suitability to the Monographs of the European Pharmacopoeia (CEP) is an important tool for both regulators and industry. Since its establishment in 1994, it has enhanced the efficiency of the authorisation process for medicines containing substances covered by European Pharmacopoeia monographs. Today, the CEP procedure is vital for public health protection, regulatory efficiency and global harmonisation and helps to build and maintain trust in the pharmaceutical field around the world. This conference is your chance to take a deep dive into the latest developments in this fast-moving regulatory environment and find out what the future holds for the CEP procedure.
