The Medicine Maker hosted an interview with Dr. Frank Milek, Board Member of IPEC Europe and involved in IPEC Federation since its inception, to highlight the importance of ensuring security of the excipient supply chain in light of the recent incidents caused by DEG contamination in different areas of the world.
The interview follows the publication of the updated position paper on the Supply Chain Security in August 2023 that you can retrieve on the website.
Almost a quarter of the way through the 21st century, it is hard to believe – and even harder to accept – that the deaths of children can be attributed to cough medicines manufactured with substandard excipients. IPEC Federation is clear: all stakeholders must not suffer complacency when it comes to supply chains.
