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 FDA with the necessary information to
perform its duty to protect public health and safety. 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 CGMP recordkeeping requirements also
serve preventive and remedial purposes and provide crucial
information if it is necessary to recall a drug product.
