The Complete German Commission E Monographs: Therapeutic Guide to Herbal Medicines Commission E, was formed in 1978 as part of the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices, Bundesinstitut Für Arzneimittel Und Medizinprodukte, Germany (BfArM). Its task was to assess herbal remedies and develop monographs detailing their uses, benefits, and potential risks. This English edition was compiled and translated by the American Botanical Council, making the knowledge accessible to an international audience, particularly in the U.S. and Canada. The book reflects Germany's progressive integration of herbal medicine into mainstream healthcare and has influenced how herbal remedies are perceived globally.
