Good Distribution Practices (GDP) are essential regulatory standards in the pharmaceutical industry that ensure the quality and safety of products throughout their logistical journey. These standards cover the transportation and distribution of healthcare products, preventing risks such as contamination, falsification, or product deterioration.

By implementing rigorous procedures for quality control, traceability, and staff training, GDP practices help maintain high standards in the supply chain, ultimately protecting patient safety.

SwissMedic, the Swiss Agency for Therapeutic Products, is the regulatory authority responsible for ensuring that products such as medicines, medical devices, and diagnostics, meet high standards of quality, safety, and efficacy.

SwissMedic grants licenses to wholesalers, importers, and exporters of medicinal products after conducting rigorous inspections. These licenses signify that a company meets the necessary requirements for handling pharmaceutical products.

Regular inspections of distribution facilities are conducted to assess compliance with GDP guidelines. These audits are crucial for identifying any areas for improvement and ensuring ongoing adherence to standards.

SwissMedic provides a comprehensive framework of laws and guidelines that must be followed across the entire distribution chain.

This regulatory oversight ensures that all parties involved in the supply chain are accountable for maintaining quality and safety.

In cases of non-compliance, SwissMedic’s role extends to investigating breaches, implementing corrective measures, and imposing penalties as necessary to uphold standards.

At Medistri, we are committed to complying with SwissMedic GDP guidelines. Our trained personnel handle products with care, and we have robust risk management systems in place. A Quality Management System (QMS) ensures continuous monitoring, with all steps documented for audits.
