    CURRENT GOOD COMPOUNDING PRACTICES

    A number of reasons have been presented for the increase in preparing

    patient-specific medications, including the following:

    1. Many patients need drug dosage or strengths that are not commerciallyavailable.

    2. Many patients need dosage forms, such as suppositories, oral liquids,

    or topicals that are not commercially available.

    3. Many patients are allergic to excipients in commercially available

    product.

    4. Childrens medications must be prepared as liquids, flavored to

    enhance compliance, and prepared in alternative dosage forms,

    such as lozenges, gumdrops, and lollipops.

    5. Some medications are not very stable and require preparation and

    dispensing every few days; they are not suitable to bemanufactured products

    6. Many products are reported in the literature but are not manufactured

    yet, so pharmacist can compound them for their physicians and

    patients use.

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    28/100

    7. Many physicians desire to try products in innovative ways, and

    pharmacists can work with them to solve medication

    problems.

    8. Most products are not available for veterinary patients and

    must be compounded.9. Home health care and the treatment of an increasing number of

    patients at home has resulted in many community pharmacies and

    home health care pharmacies preparing sterile products for

    home use; formerly, most sterile products were in the

    hospital.

    10. Hospice care has resulted in new approaches to pain

    management and higher concentrations and

    combinations of drugs that are now used

    CONTAINERS

    According to USP, a container is that which holds the

    article and is or may be in direct contact with the

    article.

    Immediate container is that which is in direct contact with the

    article at all times.

    The closure is part of the container.

    The container must not interact physically or chemically with the drugso as to alter its strength, quality, or purity beyond the official

    requirement.

    Sterile hermetic containers are generally used to holdpreparations intended for injection or parenteral

    administration

    Depending on the intended use and type of

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    35/100

    Depending on the intended use and type ofcontainer, among the qualities tested are thefollowing:

    1. Physicochemical properties

    2. Light-transmission for glass or plastic

    3. Drug compatibility

    4. Leaching and/or migration

    5. Vapor transmission for plastic

    6. Moisture barrier

    7. Toxicity for plastic

    8. Valve, actuator, metered dose particle size, spray characteristics, leaks

    for aerosols

    9. Sterility and permeation for parenteral containers

    10. Drug stability for all packaging

    CLASSIFICATION OF CONTAINERS

    Well Closed containers protect thecontents from extraneous solids and from

    loss of the drug under ordinary conditions of

    handling, shipment, storage and distribution

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    37/100

    CLASSIFICATION OF CONTAINERS

    Tight Containers protect the contentsfrom contamination by extraneous liquids,

    solids or vapors from loss of the drug, from

    efflourescence, hygroscopic or evaporation inhandling, shipment, storage, and distribution.

    Tight containers can be reclosed after being

    opened

    container is used for injection or parenteraladministration

    FOUR CATEGORIES AND TYPE ACCORDING

    FOUR CATEGORIES AND TYPE ACCORDINGTO ITS RESISTANT TO WATER (GLASS)

    Type 1 - Highly resistant, Borosilicate glass

    Type 2 - Treated Soda lime glass

    ADVANTAGES OF PLASTIC OVER GLASSCONTAINERS

    1. Lightness of weight and resistant to impact and

    lower transportation costs and losses due to

    container damage

    2. Versatility in container design and consumeracceptance afforded by plastics

    3. The interest and convenience in utilization low and

    medium density polyethylene in the formation of

    squeeze bottles

    PROBLEMS OF USING PLASTIC ASCONTAINER/PACKAGING

    1. Permeability of the containers to atmospheric

    gases and to moisture vapor.

    2. Leaching of the constituents of the container to

    the internal contents

    3. Sorption of drugs from the contents to the

    container

    4. Transmission of light through the container

    5. Alteration of the container upon storage

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    42/100

    TERMS

    Permeability - The process of solution and diffusion penetrateinitially dissolving on the plastic material on one side and

    diffusion on the other side.

    Leaching - Term used to described the release or movement of

    components of a container into the contents.SORPTION - Term used to indicate the binding of molecules to

    polymer materials. It may be adsorption or absorption.

    Tamper resistant or Tamper evident - is define as one havingindicators or barriers to entry which, if breached or missing,

    can reasonably be expected to provide evidence to consumers

    that tampering has occurred.

    TYPE I II d III i t d d f t l d t TYPE NP i

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    43/100

    TYPE I, II, and III are intended for parenteral products. TYPE NP isintended for other products.Each type is tested according to its resistance to waterattack. The degree of attack is determined by the amount of alkali releasedfrom the glass in specified test conditions.

    Leaching of alkali from the glass into a pharmaceutical solution or

    preparation could alter the pH and thus the stability of theproduct.TYPE I is the most resistant glass of the four categories

    The termplastic does not apply to a single type of material but ratherto a vast number of materials, each developed to have desired features.

    Example: the addition of methyl groups to every carbon atom in polymer

    chains of polyethylene will give polypropylene, a material that can beautoclaved, where as polyethylene cannot.

    If a chlorine atom is added to every other carbon in the polyethylene

    polymer, Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is produced. It has a good clarity, making itparticularly useful in the blister packaging of tablet and capsules. It has a significant

    drawback for packaging medical devices (syringes): it is unsuitable for gamma

    sterilization.Examples of NEWER plastics: polyethylene terephthalate (PET),

    amorphous polyethylene terephthalate glycol (APET), and polyethylene

    terephthalate glycol (PETG). Both APET and PETG have excellent transparency

    and luster and can be sterilized with gamma radiation.

    44/100

    The Permeability of a plastic is a function of severalfactors:

    1. nature of polymer itself;

    2. the amounts and types of plasticizers, fillers,

    lubricants, pigments and other additives;

    3. pressure and temperature.

    4. Generally, increases in temperature, pressure and

    use of additives tend to increase thepermeability of plastic. Glass containers are less

    permeable than plastic

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    45/100

    Compounds leached from plasticcontainers are the polymer additives,

    such as the plasticizers, stabilizers, orantioxidants. May be influenced by

    temperature, excessive agitation of the

    filled container.

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    46/100

    Sorption occurs through chemical or physical meansdue to the chemical structure of the solute molecules

    and the physical and chemical properties of the

    polymer.

    Sorption may occur with the active pharmacologicagents or pharmaceutical excipients. The

    sorption of pharmaceutical excipients such ascolorants,preservatives, or stabilizers would

    likewise alter the quality of product.

  • 7/31/2019 C-3 cGMP

    47/100

    Deformations, softening, hardening, andother physical changes in plastic containerscan be caused by the action of the

    containers contents or external factors,including changes in temperature and thephysical stress placed upon the containerin handling and shipping.

    Child-resistant container

    - is defined as one that is significantly

    difficult for children under 5 years of

    age to open or to obtain a harmful

    amount of its contents within areasonable time and that is not difficult

    fornormaladults to use properly

    Containers and closure depends on the

    geometry of two

    A. The material used in their construction

    B. The composition of the cap liner and thetightness with which the cap has been

    applied

    Closures should fit the tread of the container

    It should sit on a container without tilting, produce no leaks

    Should not rotate continuously, be reasonably tight and
