3. “To regulate means to control something so that it
functions properly.”
Drug Regulatory Affair is a function which
regulates the pharmaceutical science in order to
facilitate trade / business in and outside the
country of origin for public interest.
Effective drug regulation is required to ensure the
safety, efficacy and quality of drugs.
The drug regulation mainly consists of:
1. Drug Regulatory Bodies
2. Drug Laws
3. Quality Control
4. Drug Information Centers etc.
4. Why RA in Pharmaceuticals??
The Pharmaceutical sector has been ever growing
and with globalization, the race to lead to be first is no
more restricted by boundaries. Companies success
lies in the “time taken” by the product to reach the
market.
The companies responsible for the discovery, testing,
manufacture and marketing of these products also
want to ensure that they supply products that are safe
and make a worthwhile contribution to public health
and welfare.
On an average it takes 15-20 years for a new drug
development, and it cost around $800-1000 million.
Companies cannot afford a single day delay in getting4

9. Drug Regulatory Bodies in
India
Drug policies in India are formulated by:
The Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers and
The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
The former takes the decision on pricing of drugs
and the latter looks into quality, manufacture,
sales and distribution of drugs.
The Department of Chemicals and
Petrochemicals also oversees policy, planning,
development and regulation pertaining to the
pharmaceutical sector.
There are also 35 state-level Food and Drug
Administrations.

Acts and Rules.
To grant marketing authorization of new drugs.
To regulate clinical trials in India.
To approve licenses to manufacture certain categories
of drugs as Central License Approving Authority i.e. for
Blood Banks, Medical Devices, r-DNA drugs, Large
Volume Parenterals and Vaccines & Sera.

19. NATIONAL PHARMACEUTICAL
PRICING AUTHORITY(NPPA)
NPPA was established, to fix/ revise the prices of
controlled bulk drugs and formulations and to
enforce prices and availability of the medicines in
the country, under the Drugs Prices Control
Order(DPCO), 1995.
In order to streamline the procedure of pricing and
to bring transparency, NPPA was constituted with
the powers to fix prices and notify the changes
therein, if any, of bulk drugs and formulations from
time to time.
Pricing policy and industry regulation constitutes
the key responsibility of the NPPA.
22-06-201619
20. NPPA is entrusted with the task of recovering
amounts overcharged by manufacturers for the
controlled drugs from the consumers.
Drug prices in India are among the lowest in the
world and imports are therefore negligible.
Drugs with high sales and a market share of more
than 50% are subjected to price regulation.
Price control is exempted for the following:
New drugs discovered in India.
Bulk drugs produced from the basic stages by a
new process discovered in India.
Drugs manufactured by small-scale industries and
sold under their own brand names.
21. DEFICIENCIES & LIMITATIONS OF DRUG
REGULATORY SYSTEM
Lack of transparency in licensing procedures.
Inadequate regulatory expertise and testing
facilities to implement uniform standards.
Need for greater coordination and transparency in
functioning among different ministries concerned
with drug regulation.
Proliferation of spurious and substandard drugs in
the Indian market.
Only one- tenth of drug market is price controlled.
22-06-201621
22. Recent regulatory initiatives:
Move to establish National Drug Authority so that
quality regulation and price control is performed
by the same agency.
Establishment of pharmacovigilance centres at
national, zonal and regional levels to monitor
adverse drug reactions.
Move to bring nearly 374 bulk drugs under price
control.
Monitoring clinical trials by setting up of the
Clinical Trials Registry of India (CTRI).
