Apply For USFDA Certification In Indore Looking for comprehensive certification solutions? Shark Certification offers a wide range of services, including FSSC, BRC, HALAL, KOSHER, NGMO, GMP, USFDA, and ORGANIC. Let us guide you through the process. About the U.S. FDA The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is a key federal agency under the United States Department of Health and Human Services. As part of the federal executive structure, the FDA plays a vital role in safeguarding public health by regulating a wide range of products including pharmaceuticals, food items, cosmetics, and medical devices. The FDA is responsible for the approval and oversight of: New pharmaceutical products, including biologics Food and feed additives for humans and animals Color additives used in consumables and cosmetics Select categories of medical equipment and devices To ensure that products entering the U.S. market meet stringent quality and safety standards, the FDA also conducts inspections in manufacturing units located outside the U.S., including facilities in India that export drugs and food items to the American market. These inspections are based on Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) standards set by the agency. Compliance and FDA Inspections During inspections, FDA officials assess the level of compliance with CGMP guidelines. If any deviations or concerns are observed, they are documented in Form 483. This form outlines specific areas of non-compliance and is discussed directly with the management team of the manufacturing facility. Alongside the Form 483, the agency provides an Establishment Inspection Report (EIR), indicating whether any further action is necessary. Companies are expected to respond to the Form 483 within 15 working days. While the response is not legally required, submitting a detailed reply outlining corrective actions is highly recommended to avoid escalation. If the response is inadequate or if violations are severe, the FDA may issue a Warning Letter. In critical cases, enforcement actions such as import alerts, product approval delays, or even revocation of manufacturing licenses can follow. The FDA Approval Process For a drug or high-risk medical device to receive FDA approval, the manufacturer must demonstrate that it is both safe and effective for its intended use. While the FDA itself does not conduct testing, it rigorously reviews the data and clinical trial results submitted by manufacturers. Approval is granted only after a thorough review by a multidisciplinary team of FDA experts—including statisticians, biologists, chemists, and clinicians. Why FDA Compliance Matters for Indian Manufacturers The U.S. remains one of the largest and most lucrative markets for pharmaceutical products. Over the past few decades, Indian pharmaceutical firms have gained a significant presence in the U.S. generics space.

VOLUNTARY CERTIFICATION SCHEME FOR AYUSH PRODUCTS Introduction The Ayush products are regulated under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 by the Drugs Controller General of India through the State Governments. The Department of AYUSH has been exploring the possibility of introducing a voluntary product certification scheme for selected AYUSH products to enhance consumer confidence. The matter was discussed in a series of meetings taken by the Secretary (AYUSH) beginning 24 Dec 2008 and the Quality Council of India (QCI) offered to develop a concept paper on the subject. On approval of the concept, the Department of AYUSH signed an agreement with the QCI on 27 July 2009 to design the Scheme with Department of AYUSH being the Scheme owner and QCI being responsible for managing the Scheme. The draft Scheme was given to the Department of AYUSH on 3 Aug 2009 and Simultaneously placed on the websites of Department of AYUSH and QCI for public consultation. The Scheme will be overseen by a Multi stakeholder Steering Committee (MSC) chaired by the Secretary (AYUSH) with secretariat in QCI. The MSC will be supported by a Technical Committee and a Certification Committee constituted by QCI. The Scheme is based on a criteria for certification. It has two levels: Ayush Standard Mark which is based on compliance to the domestic regulatory requirements Ayush Premium Mark which is based on GMP requirements based on WHO Guidelines and product requirements with flexibility to certify against any overseas regulation provided these are stricter than the former criteria. Under this scheme, each manufacturing unit would obtain a certification from a approved certification body (CB) which is accredited to appropriate international standards by the National Accreditation Board For Certification Bodies (NABCB) and will be under regular surveillance of the certification body.
