[vc_row pix_particles_check=""][vc_column][vc_column_text]To explain what exactly it means to have Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) is to ensure the consistent quality and safety of products by focusing on five key elements, which are often referred to as the 5 P’s of GMP—people, premises, processes, products and procedures. GMP describes the minimum standard that a pharmaceutical manufacturer must meet in their pharmaceutical-production processes. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) coordinates inspections to verify compliance with these standards and plays a key role in harmonizing GMP activities at European Union (EU) level.
