“CGMP provides for systems that assure proper design, monitoring, and control of manufacturing processes and facilities,” the FDA says on its website. “Adherence to the CGMP regulations assures the identity, strength, quality, and purity of drug products by requiring that manufacturers of medications adequately control manufacturing operations.”

“This formal system of controls at a pharmaceutical company, if adequately put into practice, helps to prevent instances of contamination, mix-ups, deviations, failures, and errors,” the agency continued.
