HISTORY
On January 1, 1820, 11 physicians met in
the Senate Chamber of the U.S. Capitol building to establish a pharmacopeia for
the United States. These practitioners sought to create a compendium of the
best therapeutic products, give them useful names, and provide recipes for
their preparation. Nearly a year later, on December 15, 1820, the first edition
of The Pharmacopoeia of the United States was published. The preface to the
1820 edition read, It is the object of a Pharmacopoeia to select from among
substances which possess medicinal power, those, the utility of which is most
fully established and best understood; and to form from them preparations and
compositions, in which their powers may be exerted to the greatest advantage.
It should likewise distinguish those articles by convenient and definite names,
such as may prevent trouble or uncertainty in the intercourse of physicians and
apothecaries. This mission continues today within USP. Over time, the nature of
the US Pharmacopeia (USP) has changed from a set of prescriptions to a set of
pharmaceutical product standards. Its release timetable has also been changed.
From 1820 to 1942, the USP was issued with a gap of 10 years. from 1942 to
2000, every 5 years; It annually starts from 2002.
In 1888, the American Pharmaceutical
Association published the first national formula, the National Unofficial
Formula (NF). Both USP and NF were recognized in the Federal Food and Drug
Administration Act of 1906 and then the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of
1938. In 1975 he acquired the National Formulary (NF) USP and began publishing
two abstracts in one volume entitled USP-NF.
Today, the USP continues to develop the
USP-NF through the work of the Summary Expert Council, which provides standards
for articles based on advances in analytical science and metrology. As these
and related sciences advance, so do the USP and NF.
