Pharmaceutical Grade
The term “pharmaceutical grade” does have a strict legal definition. It refers to compounds and raw ingredients that have met strict standards for purity and processing conditions. These standards are established by the US Pharmacopeia (USP).
An ingredient that is pharmaceutical grade has been verified by an outside agency (not the ingredient’s manufacturer) to be at least 99% pure.
The manufacturing processes and facilities used to produce the product are regularly inspected by the USP to ensure they meet strict standards for quality control.
Random samples are taken of the products and tested to ensure that quality control and purity is maintained over time.
A pharmaceutical grade is guaranteed to be what it says it is. Even low levels of contamination can cause a human-grade product to be deadly to someone with a severe allergy.
Since many people consume the same supplement every day for long periods of time, consuming a human-grade supplement daily may expose the user to risks from contaminants. This risk is not present when consuming pharmaceutical grade supplements.
