Summary "Epitome of the Pharmacopeia of the United States and the National Formulary" is a scientific publication prepared for the use of physicians, and it appears to have been written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a concise reference for medical professionals, summarizing the essential details regarding drugs and their preparations included in the official Pharmacopeia and National Formulary. It likely aims to present the information in a more accessible format for physicians who would benefit from knowing about approved drugs and their uses without wading through extensive technical detail. The opening of the text introduces its purpose and the editorial team behind it. It establishes the significance of the Pharmacopeia and National Formulary as standards for drug quality and the necessity for physicians to be informed about what these texts contain. The authors explain that the Epitome has been designed to highlight essential information such as drug names, usages, and descriptions, making it more suitable for daily medical practice. Additionally, it mentions the inclusion of comments by medical professionals to aid in the selection of appropriate therapeutic agents, thus pointing to its practical application in a clinical setting.
