| Popis: | This article is part of a supplemental issue of the journal devoted entirely to papers on how abuse liability of medications is affected by their formulation for medical use. This article reviews the history of the development of the concept of "exempt preparations" from its first use internationally to its current use, both nationally and internationally. The role of the WHO Expert Committee on Drug Dependence (ECDD) and the College on Problems of Drug Dependence (CDPP) is presented. Examples of exempt preparations are given and the use of the concept to permit useful therapeutic agents to be marketed with reduced regulatory control is discussed. |
