EDQM: Ph. Eur. in Online-Only Format from June 2025

The European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines & HealthCare (EDQM) will launch the online-only European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) in June 2025, transitioning to a more environmentally friendly format. The new platform will enhance user experience with a modern interface and improved search tools.

Key features of the online version are:

  • The Ph. Eur. will be exclusively online starting with issue 12.1, offering all texts, including current and previous editions.
  • The publication model changes to an annual edition with three issues (for example 12.1, 12.2, 12.3), each containing new and revised texts from the European Pharmacopoeia Commission sessions.
  • Implementation dates remain January, April, and July of the following year.

This shift aims to better meet subscriber needs while promoting sustainability.
