Extractables & Leachables in OINDP & PODP’s

    The examination of leachables & extractables in OINDP & PODP’s from the primary packaging of drug delivery devices is growing in importance. This increased focus has risen from various guidelines produced by the FDA - e.g. Guidance for Industry - Nasal Spray & Inhalation Solution, Suspension, & Spray Drug Products – CMC (2002) & Guidance for Industry - Metered Dose Inhaler & Dry Powder Inhaler Drug Products – CMC (1998). Such guidelines indicate that an assessment of the safety & compatibility of packaging & closures should be conducted during the early stages of a new drug or formulation.

    Our consultant team at Smithers Rapra is experienced in conducting three main stages of the assessment of Leachables & Extractables in OINDP & PODP’s, as recommended by the PQRI: Leachables, Extractables, and Routine Extraction Testing. We follow all leachables & extractables testing regulations and perform medical packaging analysis to ensure that the integrity of your drug product remains intact.
