Nitrosamine Exchange – a USP’s knowledge community for all-things Nitrosamine

Nitrosamine Exchange – a USP’s knowledge community for all-things Nitrosamine

The Nitrosamine impurities crisis prompted regulators around the world to increase their scrutiny of drug manufacturing processes even further. In the future, this greater scrutiny may lead to the discovery of nitrosamine impurities in other medicines. For this reason, manufacturers need to understand which medicines are likely to form nitrosamines, how and at what levels nitrosamine impurities are forming, and how to control nitrosamines. In the following seminar we will explore how USP responded to the nitrosamine impurities crisis not only with a proposed general chapter on nitrosamine impurities but also non-compendial resources and tools that provides a risk assessment strategy, methods for detecting and measuring nitrosamine impurities. In that effort, USP built a knowledge community dedicated to All-things Nitrosamines.
