These regulations are standards set by health authorities to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of medicines and supplements. GMP covers all aspects of the production process, from raw material sourcing and facility hygiene to staff training and product packaging. By adhering to GMP guidelines, pharmaceutical companies help guarantee that consumers receive products that are consistently high in quality and free from contamination or errors.
