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. The reader is asked to send any comments to the Editor, Handbook of
Pharmaceutical Excipients, Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, 1
Lambeth High Street, London SE1 7JN, UK, or Editor, Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients,
American Pharmacists Association, 2215 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC
