Production Procedure

Introduction to Production Procedure:

  • Production Procedure involves precise compounding, dissolution, and pH adjustment under aseptic conditions to ensure sterility and stability.
  • Production Procedure includes sterile filtration, filling, sealing, and terminal sterilization followed by stringent quality checks to ensure safety and compliance.
  • The production of parenteral products involves several meticulously controlled steps to ensure safety, efficacy, and sterility:

Steps Involved are:

  1. Formulation Development: Based on preformulation studies, determining the appropriate vehicle, additives, and concentrations.
  2. Weighing and Mixing: Precise measurement of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients, followed by thorough mixing to ensure homogeneity.
  3. Sterilization: Methods include:
    • Heat Sterilization: Autoclaving, suitable for heat-stable products.
    • Filtration: Using membrane filters (0.22 µm) for heat-sensitive solutions.
  4. Filling: Transferring the sterile solution into containers (vials, ampoules) under aseptic conditions.
  5. Sealing: Ensuring containers are securely sealed to maintain sterility and prevent contamination.
  6. Lyophilization (if applicable): Freeze-drying the product to enhance stability, followed by sealing in a dry environment.
  7. Packaging: Final packaging with appropriate labeling and protection from environmental factors.
  8. Quality Control: Rigorous testing at each stage to ensure compliance with specifications
