These regulations may be cited as the Poisons List Regulations.
2. Interpretation
In the Poisons List set out in the Schedule, unless the context otherwise
requires-
(a)a reference to a substance shall include a reference to that
substance prepared either from natural sources or artificially;
(b)a reference to a substance shall include a reference to that
substance when contained as such in any preparation, solution,
mixture or natural substance;
(c)a 'derivative' is an organic compound which is related to
another organic compound (henceforth called the 'parent
compound') by virtue of its having-
(i) the same elemental ring and/or chain, nucleus or skeleton;
and
(ii) similar pharmaceutical activity. It may have a molecular
weight which may be the same as, or higher or lower (for
example, after formation of a derivative by the process
commonly known as dehydrogenation) than that of the
parent compound, and its preparation may or may not
require the presence of the parent compound;
(d)substances listed under the headings 'W' are those whose uses
are essentially medicinal, whilst substances listed under the
headings 'B' are not normally used medicinally.
