1905-The Jungle by Upton Sinclair - Meat packing industry led to the Food and Drug Act against
unsanitary conditions.
1937-Sulfanilamide Tragedy.
Response: Congress passed the Federal Food, Drugs and Cosmetic (FD & C) Act of 1938.
- for the first time, companies were required to prove that their products were safe before marketing
them
SULPHATHIAZOLE TRAGEDY:
In 1941, nearly 300 people were killed or injured by sulfathiazole tablets, a sulfa drug
tainted with the sedative phenobarbital.
That incident caused FDA to drastically revise manufacturing and quality control
requirements, leading to GMPs.
Thalidomide tragedy:
(1962)
Thalidomide was marketed in Europe as a sleeping pill and to treat morning sickness.
According to WHO: GMP is that part of Quality assurance which ensures that
the products are consistently manufactured and controlled to the Quality
standards appropriate to their intended use.
The proper storage and distribution of the products minimizes any risk to their quality
Aim of GMP
Final testing of the product cannot ensure the Quality, efficiency ,and safety.
• Part 1-B: Specific requirements for the manufacture of oral solid dosage forms
(tablets and capsules).
• Part 1-c: Specific requirements for the manufacture of oral liquids (syrups,
emulsions, suspensions, elixirs,etc).
Part 1-D: Specific requirements for the manufacture of topical products.
Part 1-E: Specific requirements for the manufacture of metered dose inhalers.
Part 1-F: Specific requirement of premises, plant and materials for the
manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients (bulk drugs).
2. Building and premises: building should be designed in such a way to permit production of
drugs under hygienic conditions.
6. Production area:
logical flows of materials.
Dedicatd areas for sensitive ,biological ,potent substances.
7. Ancillary areas:

Specifications for all materials, method of manufacture, quality control.
14. Labels and Other Printed Materials :Stored properly and separately.
15. Quality assurance: this section collectively influence the quality of product. it
should ensures practice with GMP,GLP,GCP.
16. Self inspection and quality audits: self inspection should be done to evaluate
compliance with GMP.
Team of independent, experienced and qualified persons for inspection.
17. Quality Control System:
Detailed instructions for quality control of raw materials and finished product; quality
control for packaging and labeling; adequacy of storage, quality control procedure .
21. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Records: SOP and records for
receipts of each delivery of raw, primary and printed packing material;
sampling; instrument and equipment; internal labeling; quarantine and storage;
batch numbering; testing, records of analysis;
These being sterile products should not be manufactured in damp, dark, dirt.
water supply, air, materials should meet requirements
Quality material should be used in construction, there should not be any cracks.
Air locks should be provided to change rooms, visual or audio warning system should be installed.
Color coded change rooms for different grade areas.
.
3.Air handling systems:
6.Sanitation:
Procedures should be written and made available,
personnel specific should be trained.
7.Equipment:
Washing machines, blenders, manufacturing vessels, stem sterilizers, filter
assemblies, filling machines, vacuum chambers, lyophilizer, sealing, labeling
machines, integrated machines.
8.Water and Steam systems:
Water for injection 10CFU/ml, and should be at 70°C
temperature, continuous rotation
9.Manufacturing process:
Bio-burden of bulk materials should be checked, gases
and liquids should filtered through membrane filters
10.Product containers and closures :

to minimize cross contamination.
Air conditioners, dust extractors should be provided.
Pressure differences maintained.
4.Coating:
Coating solutions should be immediately prepared to minimize
microbial contamination.
Air used for drying should be filtered, exhaust should be
provided to prevent environmental contamination.
5.Filling of hard gelatin capsule
Temperature, humidity should be properly maintained.
