Overview[edit | edit source]

The Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialties, more commonly known by its abbreviation CPS,[1] is a book published annually by the Canadian Pharmacists Association(CPhA). It lists commonly used pharmaceuticals in Canada. It is not a comprehensive list of all pharmaceuticals available in Canada.[1]

Being Canadian, it is exists in a French and English version. Recently, it has become available online; however, it is by registration only.[2]

Criticism[edit | edit source]

In the past, the CPS has been criticized for being heavily influenced by the pharmaceutical industry and for lacking important information, such as efficacy and price.[3] Pharmaceuticals in the CPS are listed by their brand name, [4] as opposed to by the International Nonproprietary Name (INN) or United States Adopted Name (USAN).

Some have called for the creation of an independent, nonprofit organization to manage the CPS.[3]
