Advice and guidance

This section of the BP website offers advice and guidance as to the interpretation and application of the British Pharmacopoeia monographs.

Please check the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page before submitting a query to the BP Secretariat using the query form. The BP Secretariat frequently receives several slightly different queries relating to the same topic, we have tried to distil the most frequent of these queries into the FAQ.

Please contact us if the question you have is not covered in the FAQ, your input and comments will help us to improve the British Pharmacopoeia.

We will be reviewing this section on a regular basis to make sure we have the most up to date and relevant topics. Please check back often as the information here will be updated.
