British pharmacopoeia 2015 [print edition]

The British Pharmacopoeia (BP) 2015 marks the 150th Anniversary of setting quality standards for medicines and medicinal products in the UK.

To celebrate this sesquicentenary year, each copy of the BP 2015 includes a complimentary, commemorative digital facsimile of the BP 1864 - the first edition (on a USB stick).

This edition also sees the introduction of a USB download format which replaces the CD-ROM.

Updated annually, the BP is the official, authoritative collection of standards for UK medicinal substances for human and veterinary use.

The BP 2015 includes almost 3,500 monographs. All monographs and requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia are also reproduced in the BP, making it an essential reference for students, lecturers and researchers
