GPP Audit:

Audits are conducted to check whether the Quality Management Systems are functioning
properly, and as per guidelines set forth in the Quality Manual, to see whether the desired
objectives of the pharmacy are being achieved. By a Quality Audit, the Chief Pharmacist can
evaluate the different routine processes and the quality systems in the pharmacy, and check
whether the systems are functioning as per requirements. This is achieved by frequent internal
audit and a periodic external audit. Based on the audit reports, steps should be initiated to make
necessary improvements.
The internal audit can be conducted by the chief pharmacist along with the senior staff or
members of the management team. The staff deployed for internal audit should be adequately
trained for the purpose. Audit may be carried out once in six months, or more frequently.
An external audit must be done at least once a year by external auditors, who are competent to do
so and are appointed by the management.
All audit procedures should be suitably documented.
