The CGMP regulations help ensure that
drug products meet the statutory requirements for safety and have
their purported or represented identity, strength, quality, and
purity characteristics. The information collection requirements in
the CGMP regulations provide. CGMP requirements establish
accountability in the manufacturing and processing of drug
products, provide for meaningful FDA inspections, and enable
manufacturers to improve the quality of drug products over time.
The CGBP recordkeeping requirements also serve as crucial
information if it is necessary to recall a drug product.
