No, USP does not have regulatory authority. Its role is to establish quality standards that are used by regulatory agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other international health authorities. While USP sets these standards, enforcement is carried out by regulatory bodies, which ensure that manufacturers comply with the requirements in producing safe and effective medicines and dietary supplements.
