Validation is a requirement of food, drug and pharmaceutical regulating agencies such as the US FDA and their good manufacturing practices guidelines. Since a wide variety of procedures, processes, and activities need to be validated, the field of validation is divided into a number of subsections including the following: Equipment validation
For instance, a regulatory agency (such as CE or FDA) may ensure that a product has been validated for general use before approval. An individual laboratory that introduces such an approved medical device may then not need to perform their own validation, but generally still need to perform verification to ensure that the device works correctly ...
The national drug code is a unique 10 or 11 digit, 3-segment numeric identifier assigned to each medication listed under Section 510 of the US Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The segments identify the labeler or vendor , product (within the scope of the labeler), and trade package (of this product).
Manufacturing processes must be controlled, and any changes to the process must be evaluated. Changes that affect the quality of the drug are validated [9] as necessary. Instructions and procedures must be written in clear and unambiguous language using good documentation practices. Operators must be trained to carry out and document procedures.
Deviations from the standard operation procedures should be made within the framework of the protocol and at the approval of relevant quality control departments. The FDA further recommends a documentation of the protocol be published internally. The report should include: A summation of relevant data and analysis from the protocol
ISPE has published a series of good practice guides for the industry on several topics involved in drug manufacturing. The most well-known is The Good Automated Manufacturing Practice (GAMP) Guide for Validation of Automated Systems in Pharmaceutical Manufacture. The second edition (GAMP5) was released in July 2022.

Crucial in effective CPV implementation is an appropriate data collection procedure. Data must allow for statistical analytics and trend analysis of process consistency and capability. [3] A correctly implemented procedure will minimize overreactions to individual production outlier events and guarantee genuine process inconsistency are detected.
A predicate rule is any requirement set forth in the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Public Health Service Act, or any FDA regulation other than Part 11. [3] The rule also applies to submissions made to the FDA in electronic format (e.g., a New Drug Application) but not to paper submissions by electronic methods (i.e., faxes). It ...
