Whether GMP is necessary in the presence of quality control laboratory?
Yes, product should be made up of good quality during the manufacturing process. We need to have good & controlled manufacturing process in order to produce a quality product. Laboratory is the place where the product is tested but once you are done with producing the product, you cannot change the quality of that particular product in the laboratory. In the absence of GMP, it is not possible to ensure that every unit of medicine is of the same quality at the time of testing it in the laboratory.
GMP costing - Whether manufacturers afford to implement GMP?
Making of poor quality products does not save your money but it will create problems for you in the long run. It is very expensive to find an error first and then correct that mistake. GMP is created to eliminate the errors happen during the manufacturing process of the product or to ensure that no mistake will never ever occur again in future. Proper implementation of GMP guidelines will improve the health of the consumer as well as patients. It will also benefit the pharmaceutical industry and health professionals too.
Manufacturing and distribution of poor quality products will leads to loss of reliability for public & private health care as well as for the manufacturers.
