Pharmaceutical compliance is the processes and activities undertaken by a pharmaceutical company to ensure that its products meet all applicable regulatory requirements. This includes ensuring that products are manufactured, distributed and marketed in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs), Good Distribution Practices (GDP) and other relevant regulations.
Pharmaceutical companies are required to have a compliance program designed to prevent, detect and correct violations of these regulations. The compliance program must be tailored to the specific risks associated with the company’s products, operations and business model.
An effective pharmaceutical compliance program will help ensure that products are of high quality and safe for patients. This will help protect the company’s reputation and avoid costly fines and penalties.
