This two day interactive course examines the EU legislation relevant to the manufacture, control and supply of IMPs. It provides practical guidance on the major differences in the GMP requirements between IMPs and commercial products, and the unique areas that QPs need to consider when releasing IMPs e.g. packaging and labelling processes and control.

Delegates will also benefit from the opportunity to learn about the principles of Good Clinical and Good Laboratory Practice, and how these relate to GMP for IMPs.
