Overview

The manufacture of pharmaceutical products requires the establishment and implementation of an effective ‘Pharmaceutical Quality System’ (PQS). The concepts of QA, GMP and Quality Control (QC), which are inter-related, form the basis of such a system for the manufacture of pharmaceutical products from initial development, through clinical phases to commercial and supply. Effective design, implementation, maintenance and monitoring of the PQS are important in meeting customer needs.
