Container Closure Systems For Packaging Human Drugs And Biologics
This document is intended to provide guidance on general principles for submitting information on packaging materials used for human drugs and biologics. This guidance supersedes the FDA Guideline for Submitting Documentation for Packaging for Human Drugs and Biologics, issued in February 1987 and the packaging policy statement issued in a letter to industry dated June 30, 1995 from the Office of Generic Drugs. This guidance is not intended to describe the information that should be provided about packaging operations associated with drug product manufacture.
Approaches which differ from those described in this guidance may be followed, but the applicant is encouraged to discuss significant variations in advance with the appropriate CDER chemistry review staff or CBER review staff. This is to prevent applicants or sponsors from spending unnecessary time and effort in preparing a submission that the FDA may later determine to be unacceptable.
