Riepilogo

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled "ANDAs: Stability Testing of Drug Substances and Products." FDA is recommending that generic drug manufacturers follow the stability testing recommendations in the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidances Q1A(R2) through Q1E. The use of these ICH recommendations will standardize FDA's stability testing policies, which will help make the abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) review process more efficient.
