Strict adherence to aseptic processing is critical in the hospital pharmacy environment as products are not typically held for the traditional fourteen days for sterility test results. Components of a pharmacy contaminant control program include environmental monitoring, operator certification an on-going statistically valid end product testing regime and sterility testing. In many instances, the pharmacy is producing small batches of drugs and this may necessitate adherence to practices and procedures that are in line with pharmaceutical manufacturers. Recent changes in recommendations for environmental monitoring stipulate active air sampling methodologies and many short shelf life products are in fact held for sterility test results. Millipore works closely with drug manufacturers and is familiar with regulations and procedures. The combination of products, services and technical expertise will support pharmacy professionals in helping to achieve safety for their patients.
