The Importance of Packaging and Labeling in Pharmaceutical Product Development

Recorded Session
60 Minutes

Pharmaceutical companies face growing regulation while also needing to work more efficiently, launch faster, cut costs, innovate and keep both patients and the business compliant. This 60-minute pharmaceutical packaging and labeling training shows where packaging and labeling fit in that picture.

Packaging and labeling bridge the gap between a product's concept and its distribution, and they are central to regulatory compliance. You'll review regulatory agency requirements, SOPs and change control, how packaging and labeling interact, package creation and codes, and common packaging and labeling errors.

The session also covers supply chain issues and special cases such as product launches and clinical versus commercial packaging.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Packaging and labeling are often underestimated, especially during planning, leading to longer cycle times, costly errors, delayed availability or recalls for noncompliance. Understanding the process within wider product development gives you an advantage.

It suits marketing, project management, operations, regulatory affairs, packaging and labeling, quality assurance, production control, packaging engineering, R&D and sales professionals.
