FACT SHEET
What is the United States Pharmacopeia?
The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) is a nongovernmental, standards-setting organization that advances public health by ensuring the quality and consistency of medicines, promoting the safe and proper use of medications, and verifying ingredients in dietary supplements. USP standards are developed by a unique process of public involvement and are accepted worldwide. In addition to standards development, USP's other public health programs focus on promoting optimal health care delivery and are listed below. USP is a nonprofit organization that achieves its goals through the contributions of volunteers representing pharmacy, medicine, and other health care professions, as well as science, academia, the U.S. government, the pharmaceutical industry, and consumer organizations. USP's Internet address is www.usp.org.
What does USP do?
USP's activities and initiatives revolve around four public health programs:
Standards. Establishing standards is a core USP activity. Currently, USP provides standards for more than 4,000 prescription and non-prescription drugs, dietary supplements, veterinary drugs and health care products. These standards are published in the United States Pharmacopeia and National Formulary (USP–NF), which are officially recognized in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. § 321 et seq.). USP also produces Reference Standards, which are an integral part of USP's standards program. In addition, USP offers a Pharmacopeial Education program that provides continuing educational courses for professionals working in the pharmaceutical industry-helping those who use the USP–NF better understand pharmacopeial processes, standards, tests and methods.
USP Verification Program. The USP Verification Program for dietary supplements was developed in response to the increasing concerns expressed about dietary supplements in the marketplace. Through compliance testing and document review, adherence to good manufacturing practices (GMPs), and post-marketing surveillance, USP Verification Program is designed to help ensure that dietary supplement products contain the declared ingredients in the declared quantities. Further information about the Verification Program is at: www.uspverified.org
Health Care Information. USP provides health care professionals and patients with drug information about new and off-label uses of nearly all medicines in the U.S. and Canada. This drug information is contained in the USP Drug Information (DI) database and publications, and it is distributed in association with MICROMEDEX (a division of Thomson Publishing). USP provides oversight and approves drug information content in the USP DI. USP's Health Care Information program also consists of several global initiatives. USP was awarded several grants by the United States Agency for International Development's (USAID) Center for Population, Health and Nutrition (PHN). Currently, USAID is supporting the USP Drug Quality and Information (USP DQI) program, which funds programs in Nepal, Romania, Russia, Ecuador, Senegal, China, Kazakhstan, Mozambique, and the Mekong Delta region.
Patient Safety. The Center for the Advancement of Patient Safety (CAPS) was created in order to broaden USP's work within the patient safety arena. CAPS conducts data analysis and research, seeks grants, develops professional education programs, publishes articles on issues related to medication errors, participates in legislative activities, and proposes standards recommendations and guidelines for the goal of improving patient safety by preventing and reducing medication errors.
In addition, USP operates two medication error reporting, tracking, and analysis programs: the Medication Errors Reporting (MER) Program (operated in collaboration with the Institute for Safe Medication Practices) and the MEDMARXSM program. MEDMARX is an Internet-accessible database for hospitals to report and track medication errors anonymously (www.medmarx.com).
