1. DOCUMENTATION IN PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY : WORKING INSTRUCTIONS AND RECORD FORMATS Presented by: Pv. Sai Viswanath M.pharm Department of pharmaceutical analysis Gokaraju Rangaraju College of Pharmacy Under the Guidance of Dr G Ashok Associate Professor Gokaraju Rangaraju College of Pharmacy

2. WHAT IS DOCUMENTATION ? Document is a paper providing information especially of an official or legal nature, written report or record. Documentation is an integral part of good manufacturing practices. Documentation is any communicable material that is used to describe explain or instruct regarding some attributes of an object, system or procedure such as its parts assembly, maintenance installation and uses. The main purpose of documentation is to define procedures in written to the pharmaceutical manufacturer so as to minimize the errors, misinterpretations due to oral or casually written communication and to allow the tracing of historical batches which eventually leads to the quality of the product. Documentation is an integral part of good manufacturing practices. It defines a system of information and control so that risks so inherent in misinterpretation and/or error in oral communication are minimized. It consequently strengthens the quality and its consistency of all goods and services as those responsible for the specific operations have clear unambiguous instructions to follow including active drug substances is legally mandatory. The purpose of this work is to specify the GMP requirements on documentation within pharmaceutical industry.

3. OBJECTIVES OF DOCUMENTS To define specifications and procedures for all materials and method of manufactured and control. To ensure that all personal concern with manufacture know what to do and when to do it. To ensure that authorized persons have all the information necessary to decide whether or not realize a batch of drug for sale. To ensure the existence of documented evidence , trace ability and adult trail that will permit investigation.

5. MASTER FORMULA RECORD Written procedure that give the complete description of all aspects of manufacture, packing and control with an inspection to ensure purity, identity, quality and strength of each dosage unit through its shelf life. Includes all the materials used in any batch manufacturing and step by step process of manufacturing. Definition “A document or set of documents specifying the starting materials with their quantities and the packaging materials, together with a description of the procedures and precautions required to produce a specified quantity of a finished product as well as the processing instructions, including the in-process controls.” There shall be Master Formula records relating to all manufacturing procedures for each product and batch size to be manufactured. These shall be prepared and endorsed by the competent technical staff i.e., head of production and quality control. MFR plays an important in consistency for each batch manufacturing. The master formula must include: 1) The name of the product together with product reference code relating to its specifications. 2) The patent or proprietary name of the product along with the generic name, a description of dosage form, strength, composition of the product and batch size.

6. 3) A statement of the processing location and the principal equipment to be used. 4) Name , quantity and reference number of all starting materials to be used. 5) A statement of expected final yield with the acceptable limits and of relevant intermediate yields, where applicable. 6) The methods or reference of the methods to be used for preparing the critical equipment including cleaning, assembling, calibrating, sterilizing. 7) Detailed stepwise processing instructions and the time taken for each step. Product Details: Name, logo and address of the manufacturing company. Dosage form name. Brand name. Generic name. Product code Label claim of all ingredients Product description Batch size

7. Master production and control records: Detailed written instructions including all operations starting from dispensing of raw materials till finishing of bulk products and packaging operation of the particular product. It includes batch size, date of manufacture and full signature by 1st person and further independently checked, dated and signed by 2nd person. Preparation of master formula : Master formula can be prepared by competent technical staff. It should be reviewed by the head of production, QC department and R & D department.

8. BATCH MANUFACTURING RECORD The batch manufacturing record (BMR) is a document containing the instructions that must be followed when manufacturing medication. It includes information like product name, weight and count of each component in the medication, a list of all processes and procedures to follow, and the expected yield of each batch.  Before any processing begins, a check should be performed and recorded to ensure that the equipment and workstation are clear of previous products, documents, or materials not required for the planned process and that the equipment is clean and suitable for use. These records should be numbered with a unique batch or identification number and dated and signed when issued. The “Batch Manufacturing Record” is the necessary quality and GMP documentation for tracing the complete cycle of manufacturing batch. Responsibility: Primary: Officer–QA / Officer–QC/ Officer-Production Secondary: Manager-QA/ Manager- QC/ Manager- Production Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance .

9.  In-processing and laboratory control results  A statement of the actual yield and as percentage of theoretical yield at appropriate phases of processing. Signed authorization if there is any deviation from the master formula record and/ or batch manufacturing process. Complete labeling control record including specimens or copies of all labeling used.  Description drug product containers and closures.  Any sampling performed.  Identification of the persons performing and directly supervising or checking each significant step in the operations.  Reconciliation of materials received , used, rejected and/or destroyed. A decision for the release or rejection of the batch, with the date and signature of the person responsible for the decision. Production and quality control records should be reviewed as part of the approval process of batch release.

10. QUALITY AUDIT “A systematic and independent examination to determine whether quality activities and related results comply with planned arrangements, and whether these arrangements are implemented effectively and are suitable to achieve objectives”.  Quality audit means a systemic examination of a quality system. Quality audits are typically examined at defined intervals. Types of audit : Internal audit External audit Regulatory audit

11. AUDIT ACTIVITIES  Initiating the audit  Preparing audit activities  Conducting audit activities  Preparing and distributing audit activities  Completing the audit  Conducting audit follow-up (If specified in audit plan)

12. AUDIT PLAN Required for effective audit at low cost. A comprehensive list of the specific audit procedures that the audit team needs to perform to gather sufficient appropriate evidence on which to base their opinion on the financial statements. Audit planning is carried out before start of audit. When planning the engagement, the auditor needs to develop and document a plan that describes the procedures to be performed to assess the risk of material misstatement at the financial statement and assertion level. The auditor must then carefully plan the nature, timing and extent of control tests and substantive tests that are designed to mitigate these risks to an acceptable level.  OBJECTIVES OF QUALITY AUDIT: To determine conformity or non-conformity of the quality system elements with specified requirements. To determine the effectiveness of the implemented system in meeting specific quality objectives. To afford an opportunity to improve the quality system.

13. AUDIT DOCUMENTATION: 1.Written record of the basis for the auditor’s conclusion that provides the support for the auditor’s representations, whether those representations are contained in the auditor’s report or otherwise. 2.It includes records of the planning and performance of the work, the procedures performed, evidence obtained. AUDIT REPORT : Financial records and accounts of the company. The audit reporting is the communication of audit conclusions after having carried out the audit process in accordance with the audit plan. Signed written document which presents the purpose, scope and results of the audit.
