The course offers the student a broad view on the activities of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) which together represent a concept of concepts that identify important aspects in the production of a drug. The application of the GMP Guidelines is mandatory by law in pharmaceutical manufacturing. A pharmaceutical workshop must comply with the GMP standards, compliance which must be confirmed through inspection visits by the Competent Authority, which for Italy is the Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA). The course discusses the legislative aspects that regulate the processing and organization of drug production facilities.
