Over the past few years, the World Health Organization (WHO) has issued several Medical Product Alerts concerning contaminated pharmaceutical products.

This is a stark reminder of the tragic consequences that gaps in supply chain control can have on patients.

Join us for an in-depth webinar on the IPEC Good Distribution Practices (GDP) Guide for Pharmaceutical Excipients.
This session will explore how implementing IPEC Distribution Practices can help prevent contamination risks and strengthen confidence in the global pharmaceutical supply chain.

The responsibility of all stakeholders in the supply chain to ensure the safety of medicines has never been more critical.
