Taurine

Abstract

In accordance with the Rules and Procedures of the 2015–2020 Council of Experts, the Non-Botanical Dietary Supplements Expert Committee has revised the Taurine monograph. The purpose for the revision is to address the comments received from the industry that some of the System Suitability requirements were not consistently met by all manufacturers. A Notice of Intent to Revise has been published on USP website (https://www.uspnf.com/notices/taurine-nitr) to address these concerns. This issue may result in a non-compliance that may cause significant product shortages in critical categories such as parenteral nutrition.
