Did a truck driver just ruin a drug shipment?
Not only do drugmakers need to protect their drugs from tampering, they must shield drugs from the extremes of heat and cold during transit, and store and dispense products so they're as safe and effective as they were when they left the plant.
That means drugmakers need to begin now to create a master plan that establishes how their distribution chain will protect the integrity of their products, from the very beginning of the supply chain all the way to the customer's doorstep.
These new requirements are complex, and creating a master plan will be no easy task. In the plan, drugmakers must address:
• Infiltration of falsified medicinal products into the distribution chain or the theft of medicinal products from the chain.
• Regulating temperature and other environmental factors that drugs are exposed to, even when they are in the control of third-party transport companies or warehouses.
• Ensuring that the drugs are distributed with appropriate speed, using first-in first-out principles to deliver drugs well before expiration.
• Ensuring that everyone in the distribution chain is adequately trained on implementing the requirements of the distribution master plan.
• And more… There's no denying that it's going to be an incredible amount of work to create and manage a master plan. That's why the editors of FDAnews have developed Creating a Master Plan for Drug Warehousing, Transportation and Distribution.

Step by step, it walks through the planning and implementation process, including the six key requirements included in the EU's GDP guidelines: 1. Procurement, storage, delivery and export of medicinal products in conformity with GDP
2. Definition of managerial competence and responsibility
3. Shipment of medicinal products
4. Prompt provision of documentation
5. Documentation and follow-up on deviations
