| Elemental impurity specifications have been set considering ICH Q3D (Guideline for Elemental Impurities). Class 1-3 elements are not likely to be present above the ICH Q3D option 1 limit, unless specified and indicated (*). * The Fe(II)-content increases if the recommended storage conditions (+15 to +25°C) are not observed. conforms to Ph Eur, JPE |
