Holders of a Certificate of Suitability to the monographs of the European Pharmacopoeia (CEP) must inform the EDQM of any change(s) to the information provided in the initial application.

In addition, a CEP must be renewed once, 5 years after the issue date of the original CEP for it to remain valid (regardless of revisions in the interim period).
