In-process quality control (IPQC) is a crucial aspect of pharmaceutical industries, ensuring accurate packaging processes and high-quality final products. It involves a comprehensive approach, including visual inspection of packaging materials and finished products, weighing and volume checks, sealing integrity assessment, accurate labelling, and monitoring of packaging line parameters. The process also scrutinises the legibility and accuracy of printed packaging information, reviews batch records for adherence to standard procedures and good manufacturing practices, monitors tamper-evident features and environmental conditions, and collects random samples for testing. All IPQC activities are thoroughly documented. The collected data is managed and analysed for trend identification, issue resolution, and continuous process improvement. Effective IPQC implementation reduces the risk of defects and regulatory non-compliance, ensuring product safety, efficacy, and maintaining the company's reputation.
