ISO 11240

ISO 11240: 2012 is a standard from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the rules for

  • the use and coded representation of units of measurement for the purpose of exchanging data on the quantitative properties of a human medicinal product
  • the standardized and machine-readable documentation of the composition and strength of drugs

created as well as requirements

  • of units of measurement for classification in international, metrological standards
  • for the coded representation of units of measurement

names.

The standard describes rules and structures for the mutual mapping and translation of units of measurement in different languages ​​and systems of units of measurement. The standard is based on the UCUM system .

This standard is limited to the representation of units of measure for the exchange of information between computer systems.

The standard was developed in the working group WG6 (Pharmacy) of the Technical Committee ISO TC 215 Health Informatics .

Other relevant standards

The ISO 11240: 2012 standard belongs to a group of five standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) . Further standards are

  • ISO 11616: 2012 - Pharmaceutical products
  • ISO 11615: 2012 - Medicines
  • ISO 11239: 2012 - Catalogs for dosage forms, dosage units, application types and containers
  • ISO 11238: 2012 - Substance information

The entire group of standards was developed for use in medicinal products for human use.
