New for the 12th Edition
As of the 12th Edition, the Ph. Eur. will be available in an online-only format.
The previous three-year cycle, which included one edition and eight supplements, is being replaced by an annual edition consisting of three issues. The 12th Edition is therefore composed of Issues 12.1, 12.2, and 12.3. Each issue will contain new and revised texts adopted at one of the three European Pharmacopoeia Commission (EPC) sessions held annually.
The licence model has also been switched to a user-friendly 365-day licence.
The new Ph. Eur. platform offers:
- access to fully cumulative versions (English and French) of the Ph. Eur.;
- compatibility with recent Edge, Chrome, Firefox and Safari browsers;
- for the first time, access to all texts currently in force and texts published since 11.0, in one convenient space;
- an in-text menu to navigate between different versions of a text
- a new text status traffic light system to help you find the texts you need quickly and efficiently:
- “in force” (green) for legally binding, implemented texts;
- “no longer in force” (red) for texts that have been suppressed or superseded by newer versions;
- “not yet in force” (orange) for texts that have not yet reached their implementation date;
- direct links to versions of texts undergoing public consultation in Pharmeuropa
- continued access to the Ph. Eur. online archives and complementary information on texts in the Knowledge database
- new and improved features for searching and filtering by title, text number, text status, and text type;
- predefined searches to see at a glance what's new in an issue and a New Content list with links to all general chapters, monographs and reagents published in an issue;
- updated licence management features such as counters displaying the number of remaining user accesses available and time left on the licence.
