Our Pharmacovigilance Consultancy Services


The below article was written for this blog by QA Manager, Zahra Khokher and our Associate Director of PV, Ejaz Butt.

SOP Writing, Gap Analysis & Inspection Readines

Background
In the pharmaceutical industry, it is very important that a MAH has documented procedures in place in accordance with the regulatory requirements. This is a critical requirement in pharmacovigilance (PV) where patient safety is at risk if compliant procedures are not in place. From adverse event case management and PV training to signal detection and the implementation of risk management plans, the scope of PV SOPs is very broad and requires collaboration across multiple functions to develop and maintain SOPs.

How Zigzag can support you

Zigzag can help you develop your SOPs and can also review your existing SOPs to identify any gaps in the quality management system. If your SOPs are well-written, this will improve your day-day processes and ultimately contribute towards achieving regulatory compliance. For newer SOP topics, your company may benefit from customised SOP training. Zigzag specialise in providing SOP training whether it is face-face or WebEx training, we can accommodate your requirements.

Zigzag can also help you to become inspection ready by providing the above services and also carrying out mock inspections.
