- INTRODUCTION
- PURPOSE
- DEFINITIONS AND EXAMPLES
- NOMENCLATURE
- EXCIPIENTS IN THE LABELLING
- EXCIPIENTS IN THE PACKAGE LEAFLET

Now the annex "EXCIPIENTS AND INFORMATION FOR THE PACKAGE LEAFLET" has been revised again and the information for polysorbates has been listed.

Furthermore, additional comments as well as the type of application and the corresponding threshold values are listed together with the update date.
