Pharmacopoeia


Literally, it means “drug-making”. It is a book that encloses information for the identification of samples and the preparation of compound medicines and published by the power of a government or a medical or pharmaceutical body. It is simply a reference book of drug specifications. Different Countries may have different Pharmacopoeia.
