GMP

(Good Manufacturing Practice)

GMP

GMP is a quality concept, and consists of a set of policies and procedures for manufacturers of drug products. These polices and procedures describe the facilities, equipment, methods and controls for producing drugs with the intended quality. (Ng. R, 2003)

Definition GMP

GMP Principle:

Quality cannot be tested into a product, but must be designed and built into each batch of the drug product throughout all aspects of its manufacturing processes. (Ng.R, 2003)

GMP ensures:

  • pure

  • consistent

  • safe

  • effective

GMP regulatory guidelines are revised, updated all the time to implement new research, data or information. Thus, manufacture must keep abreast with current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP).

 

cGMP is similar in various of contries. However, it will be little different in some specific area.

Quality Assurance

Quality Assurance

Quality assurance (QA), refers to planned and systematic production processes that provide confidence in a product's suitability for its intended purpose. It is a set of activities intended to ensure that products (goods and/or services) satisfy customer requirements in a systematic, reliable fashion. QA cannot absolutely guarantee the production of quality products, unfortunately, but makes this more likely in order to satisfy the customer. (Wikipedia, 2015)

Anymore Quality Guidelines need to consider?

consider

ICH Q(8)-R2 pharmaceutical development guidelines

In this Q8 guidelines, it provides guidance on the contents of Section 3.2.P.2 (Pharmaceutical Development) for drug products. The guideline does not apply to contents of submissions for drug products during the clinical research stages of drug development. However, the principles in this guideline are important to consider during those stages as well. The principles of quality by design (QbD) is also described.
