On 22 January 2013, the PRC Ministry of Health issued the
revised Good Supply Practice for Pharmaceutical Distribution
("Revised GSP"), which will take effect
1 June 2013.
In replacing the current GSP ("2000
GSP"), the Revised GSP provides stricter requirements
for:
Warehousing Facilities (climate control and stock control
systems);
Employee Qualifications (the company officers responsible for
quality control, and retail operations, must be PRC-qualified
pharmacists);
Document Retention; and
Pharmaceutical Quality Control.
The 2000 GSP will be "grand-fathered" for those PRC
enterprises holding current GSP licenses, up to but not beyond
renewal of current GSP or pharmaceutical trading licenses.
