This document discusses Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). It provides definitions of GMP and cGMP, explaining that GMP ensures quality and safety in manufacturing while cGMP refers specifically to FDA regulations. The principles and regulations of GMP, cGMP, and their comparison are outlined. Key aspects like facilities, equipment, documentation, packaging and labeling, quality control, and standard operating procedures are summarized.

1. GMP
(GOOD MANUFACTURING PRACTICES )

3. What is GMP?
The part of QA ,which make sure that the product are consistently
produced and controlled to the quality standards appropriate to
their intended use and as required by the marketing
authorization.
GMP regulations were introduced in the form of amended
schedule M in 1988.The schedule M has again been amended in a
major way by the Drugs & Cosmetics (8th amendment) Rules ,
2001.

4. Why GMP?
 Provide a high level assurance medicine are manufactured in a
way that ensure their safety , efficacy and quality.
 Medicine are manufactured to comply with their marketing
authorization.
 Quality is built in testing is part of GMP, but alone does not
provide a good level quality assurance.

5. Principle of GMP
 Manufacturing facilities must maintain a clean and hygenic
manufacturing area .
 Controlled environmental conditions in order to prevent cross
contamination of food or drug product from adulterants that
may render the product unsafe for human consumption .
 Manufacturing process are clearly defined and controlled .All
critical process are validated to ensure consistency and
complains with specifications.
 Manufacturing process are controlled and any changes to the
process are evaluated change that effect the quality of drug are
validated as necessary.

6. Principle of GMP
 Instructions and procedures are written in clear and
unambiguous language.
 Operators are trained to carry out an document procedures.
 Cross contamination with unlabelled major allergens is
prevented .

7. What is cGMP?
cGMP refers to the regulations set forth by the US .FDA under
the authority of Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic act. cGMP
regulations require a quality approach to manufacturing
enabling companies to minimize or eliminate
contamination,mixups and errors.

9. The U.S. GMP regulations are divided
into two parts 210 and 211 , Title 21
 Part 210 ."Current Good Manufacturing Practice in
Manufacturing, Processing, Packaging, or Holding of drugs i.e
provide the framework for the regulations .
 Part 211,"cGMP for Finished Pharmaceuticals,"state the
actual requirements.

10. Content of part 211of U.S GMP
regulations
 Subpart A General Provision.
 Subpart B Organization and personnel.
 Subpart C Building and facilities.
 Subpart D Equipment.
 Subpart E Control of components and drug product container
and closure
 Subpart F Production and process control.
 Subpart G Packaging and labelling control.
 Subpart H Holding and distribution.
 Subpart I Laboratory control.
 Subpart J Record and reports.
 Subpart K Returned & salvaged drug product.

11. Comparision of GMP and cGMP
GMP
Quality of drugs is essentially the
responsibility of manufacturers.
GOOD MANUFACTURING
PRACTICES guidelines are a
means to assure this quality of
drugs
cGMP
cGMP refers to the regulations set
forth by the US .FDA under the
authority of Federal Food Drug
and Cosmetic act. cGMP
regulations require a quality
approach to manufacturing
enabling companies to minimize
or eliminate
contamination,mixups and errors.

12. Why are our SOPs based on cGMP?
cGMP is a good business tool . SOPs based on cGMP
requirements unable the footman company to maintain and
improve complaince , insure consistant quality of the printed
product and maintain our reputation for quality through out
the industry.
