Abstract

How the Bureau of Drugs laboratories and offices obtain chemical data from the scientific literature, from user complaints and product defect reporting systems, from the drug manufacturers, from analyses of drug samples collected from the market, and from analytical research are described. The chemical data thus educed have been used successfully in developing new analytical methods, in establishing better specifications of drug quality, in removing adulterated drugs from the marketplace, in successfully prosecuting purveyors of substandard drugs, and in general assuring that consumers are provided with safe and effective drugs of high quality.
