European Pharmacopoeia 7.0

The 7th Edition consists of all texts published in the 6th Edition, which may subsequently have been revised or corrected, and new texts. 

For the information of the reader, lists are given below of monographs and general chapters that are new, or that have been revised, corrected or deleted, and texts whose title has been changed for the 7th Edition. The version date (for example 01/2011 for a text that is new or revised for the 7th Edition), completed by ‘corrected X.X’ if a corrected version of the text has subsequently been published in Supplement X.X, and the reference  umber (4 digits for monographs and 5 digits for general chapters) are specified above the title of each text (monographs and general chapters). The version date, completed by ‘corrected X.X’ if appropriate, makes it possible to identify the successive versions of texts in different editions. From the 7th Edition, if a text has not been revised for a new Edition, the version date published in the previous Edition will be kept in order to improve traceability. The volume in which this version has been published for the first time is stated in the Knowledge database on the EDQM website. A vertical line in the margin indicates where part of a text has been revised or corrected. A horizontal line in the margin indicates where part of a text has been deleted. However, these indications, which are not necessarily exhaustive, are given for information and do not form an official part of the texts. Editorial changes are not indicated. Lines in the margin that were present in revised or corrected texts in the previous Edition will be deleted with each new Edition.

Corrections that are indicated by the note ‘corrected 7.0’ under the version date are to be taken into account from the publication date of the volume.

For the 7th Edition, the following decisions and systematic modifications to the texts of the European Pharmacopoeia have been made.— Monographs on herbal drugs and herbal drug preparations have been published in a separate chapter in volume 1. — Where appropriate, monographs on herbal drugs are being progressively revised to incorporate the legend of the illustration of the powdered herbal drug into the text of identification test B.
