These are the objects of Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia
History and development of homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia
From
the history of pharmacy we came to know that, Hahnemann never wrote any
separate book on “Pharmacopoeia”. But he wrote ‘Organon of Medicine’, ‘The
Chronic Diseases’ and ‘Materia medica pura’. These books play an important role
in writing of Pharmacopoeia. Since 1825, a good number of homoeopathic
Pharmacopoeias have been published in different countries, especially in
Germany and U.S.A.
The first homoeopathic pharmacopeia was published by
Dr. Cral W. Caspari of Leipzing, Germany in 1825.Gradually different
homoeopathic establishments or associations published their Pharmacopoeias. They
are:
1#German
Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia::1825
The first homoeopathic pharmacopoeia was published
by Caspari of Leipzing, Germany. He published a, “Homoeopathic and
Dispensatorium Fur Artze and Apotheker”, thereby giving the first idea of
homoeopathic pharmacopoeias for physician and pharmacists.
The first edition was published in 1870 by the
‘British Homoeopathic Society’ London, and followed by the publication of 2nd
and the 3rd edition in 1876, respectively.
3#Homoeopathic
Pharmacopoeia of U.S.A::1897
In 1897 came the first pharmacopoeia in U.S.A named
‘Pharmacopoeia of the American Institute of Homoeopathy’,of the said Institute
and published by Otis Clop and Son,inc, Agent, Boston, U.S.A.
4#Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of India::1971
In
India the 1st homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia was published by M
Bhattacharyya and Co, Calcutta, in 1893, named ‘Pharmaceutics Manual’. Since
then it has run into twelve editions. The current edition was published on 14th
Feb, 1980.
5#French Hoeopathic Pharmacopoeia::1897
New edition of FHP has come out. It is an important
Pharmacopoeia in the history of Homoeopathy.
Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia
The name pharmacopoeia originates from
the two Greek words: ‘Pharmacon’ means a drug; and ‘poieo’ means to make.
Pharmacopoeia is the theoretical part of Pharmacy.
The supreme authoritative book published
by the authority of government of any country, which deals with the scientific
facts and logical attitude of the rules
and regulations of standardization of drug substance, containing directions for
collecting drug material from different sources, for preparing, preserving, compounding
and combining of various drugs. Besides, it also contains-external
applications, prescription writing, posology and monograph of drugs. It is
officially published by the authority of government of any country or any
medical or pharmaceutical society. A Pharmacopoeia published by such authority
is termed as ‘official’.
So, we can say that
Pharmacopoeia is an essential part of Homoeopathic Pharmacy.
