FDA Wants Resource Planning In Corrective Action Plans


According to the The QA Pharm blog,
"The most successful corrective action plans have been those where the direct responsible individuals are named and appear in detailed project plans. There is a clear picture of what success looks like and how to get there. But most of all, the resources are identified to execute the work."
Apparently in an FDA Warning Letter to Teva early this year,  the FDA is telegraphing their desire to see these kinds of elements in a response:
  • a plan
  • what kind of data will be collected to measure the effectiveness of the plan
  • a timeline for the plan
  • the identification of resources allocated to address the issue

FDA Draft Guidance On Good Importer Practices

Updated October 6, 2022

Several links in the original post broke.

---  the original post follows below  ---

A group of federal agencies issued a draft guidance for industry on Good Importer Practices, with the intent to help importers ensure their products are safe and comply with U.S. requirements, FDA Guidance for Industry – Good Importer Practices.

The guidance is designed to anticipate potential sources of product hazards and offer preventive controls that firms can implement to mitigate such hazards and help ensure imported products are safe and compliant with regulations. The draft is organized under 4 guiding principles . . .

  1. Establishing a product safety management program
  2. Knowing the product and applicable U.S. requirements
  3. Verifying product and company compliance with U.S. requirements throughout the supply chain and product life cycle
  4. Taking corrective and preventive action when the imported product is not in compliance with U.S. requirements

The draft guidance also recommends that:

  • importers consider instituting practices to identify and minimize risks associated with imported products
  • in general, importers should know the producer of the foreign products they purchase and any other manufacturers with which they do business, such as consolidators, trading companies, and distributors
  • importers understand the products that they import and the vulnerabilities associated with these products
  • importers understand the hazards that may arise during the product life cycle, including all stages of production, and ensure proper control and monitoring of these hazards

The agencies are issuing this draft guidance to implement recommendations outlined in the “Action Plan for Import Safety: A Roadmap for Continual Improvement,” issued by the Interagency Working Group on Import Safety, and to help foster a consistent approach by federal agencies and importers in ensuring the safety of products brought into the United States.

Ever Wonder How Bleach Kills Bacteria?

Not my usual kind of post, and for some reason this caught my eye. Perhaps it's because of my microbiology and healthcare training background, and throw in my obsession with cleanliness. I've always just enjoyed and taken for granted, the marvelous cleaning power of bleach. Until now, I've never stopped to consider, "How Bleach Kills Bacteria." This Medical News Today report is fun to read as it . . .

  1. Explains how bleach attacks essential bacterial proteins in a way that's similar to the effect of high temperatures
  2. Discusses hsp33 (heat shock protein) and "molecular chaperones"
  3. Highlights the potential of this finding to give a better understanding of how our bodies might fight off bacterial infections
