Pharmaceutical contract packager Reed-Lane works with consulting firm, machinery vendors on three key packaging lines to meet fast-approaching serialization enforcement deadline.
One can only imagine the number of calendar alerts set to trigger pharmaceutical professionals come Nov. 26, 2018.
Of course, that’s the date the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) serialization enforcement deadline takes effect in which manufacturers must provide unit-level product identifiers on their drug packages. The 2018 date represents a one-year delay granted by FDA in the enforcement of the requirement for manufacturers to affix or imprint product identifiers. Actual DSCSA compliance was Nov. 27, 2017.
