Abstract: | In May 1987 the United States Food and Drug Administration published the final version of a guideline for process validation for pharmaceutical manufacturing. The document incorporated the comments from the pharmaceutical industry gathered after the publication of three draft versions in 1983, 1984 and 1986.
The presentation will cover the current definition of process validation as well as terms such as “worse case” and “installation qualification”.
The stages of process validation will be discussed including the written plan (protocol): records to be maintained; suitability of raw materials; equipment performance qualification; the number of runs required; and acceptance criteria.
Specifics for solid dosage forms will be presented along with details on batch record in instructions and establishment of acceptable range limits.
Circumstances and requirements for revalidation will be discussed as well as the validation of current finished dosage forms by retrospective validation. |
