In the light of modern requirements for the quality of herbal preparations, the pharmacopoeias of leading foreign countries regulate the content of residual pesticides in the General Pharmacopoeia Monograph. Based on experimental studies, comparative analysis of modern approaches to the quality of medicinal plant materials in domestic and foreign literature, a draft General Pharmacopoeia Article “Determination of the content of residual pesticides in medicinal plant raw materials” was prepared for the XII edition of the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation.
