USFDA release the guidance documents on Process Validation titled “Process Validation: General Principles and Practices” in January 2011. However the approach laid down in this document is still being not adopted completely by the industries till date. The concept laid down was to transfer the complete process optimization activities to R & D from manufacturing instead of struggling during the Production phase. This would lead to cost saving and reduces the chances of failure of the product when it has been transferred to the manufacturing phase.
