Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports on Biological Standards: I. On the Physiological Standardization of Extracts of the Posterior Lobe of the Pituitary Body It is a position, however, which fortunately is quite unnecessary and easily to be avoided. The United States Pharmacopoeia has officially laid down a theoretical strength for this extract. This Report recommends the adoption of the same theoretical strength for this country, and indicates a method by which a preparation of uniform activity can be made and used as a standard of reference. It may be noted that the British Pharmacopoeia has not yet recognized the existence of this potent and common remedy. It is earnestly hoped that early action may be taken as the result of representations made in detail by the Medical Research Committee in 1916 to Mr. Asquith's Reconstruction Committee, and later in 1919 to the President of the Local Government Board (subsequently the Minister of Health), upon the urgent need for official standards of value and authenticity for drugs of this kind and for the numerous biological preparations, sera, and the like, used in medical practice. The Committee on those occasions expressed their conviction that the absence of the possibilities of control which would be given by the determination and imposition of standards was 'discreditable to our national position in the world of science and a source of grave danger to the community'. The Departmental Committee appointed to advise the Minister of Health upon this subject in April, 1920, has already reported strongly in favour of immediate measures, and has formulated a detailed scheme. (Command paper 1156, 1921, Stationery Office, price 2d.) In the meantime, a Committee appointed jointly by the Obstetrical Section of the Royal Society of Medicine and the Medical Research Council is conducting a thorough investigation into the doses of pituitary extract appropriate for various medical and surgical uses, and more particularly for administration to women in labour. The Council agree with Dr. Dale that 'it will be truly lamentable if the results of this important inquiry, when in due course they are published, should be deprived of all accurate meaning by the failure of the manufacturers to bring all the makes of pituitary extract to such a uniform standard of activity as, without serious trouble, could be ensured'.
