Key Considerations for End-to-End Primary Packaging Solutions for Pharmaceuticals and Devices 

 

Your pharmaceutical product’s container closure system is a highly vital component of a product’s effectiveness for the pharmaceutical, biologics, and biotechnology industries. A container closure system will protect the product from environmental conditions and will ensure a product’s strength, purity, safety and efficacy through expiry.  

The objective of this webinar is to address United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and FDA regulatory trends to demonstrate how to integrate various analytical tests into a robust program that addresses product integrity/compatibility throughout the product lifecycle. This includes selection and development of the packaging systems and associated challenges of the packaging systems (stability storage, accelerated aging, freeze-thaw, altitude, drop, and vibration distribution simulation, and routine release of commercial product).  

Join featured speaker, Charles Felter, to learn about the types of tests available and the types of tests regulatory agencies expect to be performed to ensure your product’s container closure system is adequate.  

 

Key Learning Objectives:  

  • Overview of container closure systems and their components  

  • Types and applications of logistical tests for various closure systems  

  • USP regulatory trends and other packaging requirements
