Introduction
All preparatory issues pertaining to the creation of the
Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of India were considered at the first meeting of the
Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia Committee, which was held in November 1962. The
Committee made the decision to send a questionnaire on the Pharmacopoeia to all
distinguished homoeopathic physicians and significant homoeopathic pharmacies
in India and overseas. To create a list of medications to be included in the
Pharmacopoeia, a Sub-Committee was established. This list was finalised in
March 1967 after taking into account the many opinions received and the
conclusions made at several meetings. Since there were over 2000 approved
homoeopathic medications, it was decided to include them into homoeopathy
gradually.

The Committee decided to include 128 significant common
medications in the first volume. Draught monographs for these medications were
created and distributed to the Committee's participants as well as interested
producers. These monographs were developed and approved by the Committee after
taking the opinions of the members and the manufacturers into account.
Following discussions by the members at numerous sessions,
the Committee finished and approved the general notifications, general
directions, and appendices.
Numerous locally produced pharmaceuticals have been
included, along with their formulations.
An annexe lists the medications that are included in the
First Volume of the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of India (Page 27).
When possible, the medications utilised in homoeopathy are
those that were listed in the original proving. This work has been undertaken,
and the extra standards gathered will be properly incorporated in a supplement,
as standards for such medications are not always easily available and further laboratory
work is necessary for this purpose.
The following are the unique features of monographs, which
follow a broad format almost identical to other pharmacopoeias.
The usual Latin names used by the homoeopathic profession
are used in the titles of the monographs, while additional names are listed
under "synonyms."
A second appendix XIX (page 256) has the drug names in
Indian languages.
For the majority of medications with a chemical origin,
descriptions, identification tests, and assay methods have been provided.
Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia Of India Information
After information on the parent medicine, the manufacture of
the homoeopathic mother tincture or substance comes next. Since the Committee
noticed that the industry in this country is using both the old (Hahnemannian)
and new methods of drug preparation as in the American Homoeopathic
Pharmacopoeia, neither method's benefits have yet been thoroughly examined in
order to come to a decision favouring one method over the other exclusively.
The numerous details under the General Instructions have been
established while taking into account the local manufacturers' customs.
The American Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia, the British
Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia, the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United
States, and the German Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia were all consulted while
compiling this pharmacopoeia. The Commissions or authorities who have released
these publications are thanked by the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia Committee. The
Homoeopathic Manufacturing Pharmacists who extended their excellent cooperation
and actively participated in the development of this volume are acknowledged by
the Committee for their assistance.
The Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia Committee also expresses its
gratitude for the efforts made by the staff and members of the several
subcommittees in producing this volume.
The Committee would especially like to express its gratitude to the Drugs Controller (India), the Director of the Central Drugs Laboratory in Calcutta, and the Director of the Central Indian Pharmacopoeial Laboratory in Ghaziabad who have occasionally provided their insightful recommendations and cooperation.
Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia Of India Creation
The Homoeopathic Advisory Committee proposed the creation of
a homoeopathic pharmacopoeia committee in 1956, and the majority of the
Committee members agreed. From 1956 until 1962, this was discussed at numerous
Advisory Committee meetings. In September 1961, the Homoeopathic Sub-Committee
of the Drugs Technical Advisory Board expressed the opinion that the Government
should properly take into account the Homoeopathic Advisory Committee's
recommendation for the preparation of a Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of India
when considering the quest for control of homoeopathic medicines under the
Drugs Rules. The Homoeopathic Advisory Committee meeting in New Delhi in
December 1961 reaffirmed this viewpoint once more. Dr. K. G.
After reconsidering the Committee's earlier suggestion, the Government of India's Ministry of Health decided to form the Committee. Thus, in September 1962, the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia Committee was established with the following goals:
On the model of the American, German, and British homoeopathic pharmacopoeias, (i) a Pharmacopoeia of homoeopathic drugs whose therapeutic usefulness has been established; (ii) principles and standards for the preparation of homoeopathic drugs; (iii) tests of identity, quality, and purity; and (iv) such other matters as are incidental and necessary for the preparation of homoeopathic pharmacopoeia.
The Committee's initial term was three years. It was
subsequently periodically extended. The Committee's membership has been as
