The UK regulator for medicines, medical devices and blood components for transfusion in the UK, The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) have further extended the validity period of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Distribution Practice (GDP) Certificates.
Pharmacy Consulting is one of just five providers approved by cogent skills and the MHRA to deliver the responsible person in GDP course.
In order to legally run a business that deals with the wholesale of animal medicines (veterinary medicinal products) you must obtain a veterinary medicines Wholesale Distribution Authorisation (WDA(V)) from the Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD).
Good Distribution Practice applies to the whole business, so if you have a WDA, one of the requirements is that you work to GDP. As part of your licence terms, it is the responsibility of the RP to ensure that all staff involved in GDP activity are trained in GDP.
It is quite easy to think that Brexit must have been done by now, but the reality is that it isn’t. I was reminded of this doing my trawl through the daily GOV.UK Brexit email.
