Contribute to the USP Donations Program

By contributing information and materials to the USP Donations Program you help to accelerate the development of quality standards and ultimately protect global public health. Whether you submit analytical methods and related information or materials, you will be engaged throughout every stage of the standards development process.

The information and materials that you contribute enable USP, industry and regulators to set public standards for the identity, strength, quality, and purity/potency of medicines. Your contributions underscore your company’s dedication to quality, reflecting positively on your corporate reputation. New or revised standards reflecting these contributions can also help to meet regulatory requirements. When you align compendial requirements to compendial filings for your products, you can save valuable time and resources.
