Consolidated list of justified stocks
Jan 17, 2018
The Homeopathic Medicinal Products Working Group (HMPWG) of the Heads of Medicines Agencies (HMA) has now published a consolidated list of stocks for which homeopathic use is justified; this incorporates into a single document lists 1-5 that have been published over the last four to five years.
This is a non-exhaustive list of homeopathic stocks whose homeopathic use is considered satisfactorily justified by the HMPWG. The list is comprised of:
- the name(s) of the stocks including the Latin name
- a Pharmacopoeia reference (the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) or in absence thereof a Pharmacopoeia currently used officially in the member states)
- definition of the raw material.
There are two versions of the consolidated list – one sorted alphabetically by the German name of the stock and one sorted alphabetically by the French name. It is the intention that these lists will act as a reliable reference document for applications for special, simplified registration of homeopathic medicinal products.
