How do active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturers transport?

active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturers need to ensure the quality and safety of drugs during transportation, and specific measures include the following:
Choose the appropriate transportation method: It is recommended to use postal channels or Feixiang International Drug Double Clearance and Tax Free Air Freight Line, which can ensure the safety and compliance of drugs during transportation, with a customs clearance rate of over 99%.
Ensure that drugs comply with the regulations of the destination country: Before transportation, it is necessary to confirm that the drugs comply with the regulatory requirements of the destination country. For example, the US FDA has strict safety, quality, and intellectual property requirements for imported drugs, ensuring that the drugs maintain the specified temperature and quality throughout the entire transportation process.
Use appropriate packaging materials: Drugs should be packaged with packaging materials that meet cold chain requirements to prevent them from being affected by temperature changes, collisions, and other factors during transportation. For drugs that require refrigeration, ice sheets and ice packs should be used to maintain temperature and ensure that the drugs do not come into direct contact with the ice sheets.
Temperature monitoring: During transportation, the temperature of the medicine is monitored in real time through temperature monitoring equipment. Once abnormal temperature is detected, immediate measures should be taken to adjust it, such as adjusting the power of the refrigeration equipment, checking the insulation performance of the vehicle, etc.
Compliance check: Ensure that all drugs are produced by legitimate manufacturers and retain their original packaging. For prescription drugs, a doctor's prescription or purchase invoice must be provided; For special forms of drugs such as liquids, powders, etc., they need to be sealed and packaged in quantities that meet the individual's treatment cycle.
Transport validation: For certain biological products (such as monoclonal antibodies and growth factors), transport validation studies are required to ensure that the impact of the transport process on product quality is within a controllable range. This includes assessing the impact of transportation on product quality, ensuring that the product remains safe and of good quality throughout its shelf life.
