Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialties

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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]

Pharmaceuticals in the CPS are listed by their brand name.[2] Being Canadian, it is exists in a French and English version. Recently, it has become available online; however, it is by registration only.[3]
