Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP)
Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) are regulations enforced by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that provide systems to ensure proper design, monitoring, and control of manufacturing processes and facilities. Adherence to cGMP regulations assures the identity, strength, quality, and purity of drug products by requiring that manufacturers adequately control manufacturing operations.
Guideline
US FDA Requirements for Pharmaceuticals
(21 CFR 211.46) HVAC & Environmental Controls
Proper air handling with HEPA/appropriate filtration
Positive/negative air pressure controls based on product risk
AHU qualification & periodic monitoring
Separate air-handling for potent/toxic materials
Temperature & humidity monitoring with deviation controls
