About Book

The Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients is a reference work containing a compilation of information on the uses and properties of pharmaceutical excipients, and the reader is assumed to possess the necessary knowledge to interpret the information that the Handbook contains. The Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients has no official status and there is no intent, implied or otherwise, that any of the information presented should constitute standards for the substances. The inclusion of an excipient, or a description of its use in a particular application, is not intended as an endorsement of that excipient or application. Similarly, reports of incompatibilities or adverse reactions to an excipient, in a particular application, may not necessarily prevent its use in other applications. Formulators should perform suitable experimental studies to satisfy themselves and regulatory bodies that a formulation is efficacious and safe to use.

While considerable efforts were made to ensure the accuracy of the information presented in the Handbook, neither the publishers nor the compilers can accept liability for any errors or omissions. In particular, the inclusion of a supplier within the Suppliers Directory is not intended as an endorsement of that supplier or its products and, similarly, the unintentional omission of a supplier or product from the directory is not intended to reflect adversely on that supplier or its product.

Although diligent effort was made to use the most recent compendial information, compendia are frequently revised and the reader is urged to consult current compendia, or supplements, for up-to-date information, particularly as efforts are currently in progress to harmonize standards for excipients. Data presented for a particular excipient may not be representative of other batches or samples.

Relevant data and constructive criticism are welcome and may be used to assist in the preparation of any future editions or electronic versions of the Handbook.
