Introduzione

Good Distribution Practices (GDP) ensure that medicinal products and medical devices are consistently stored, transported, and handled to maintain their quality and integrity.
They minimize the risk of contamination, mix-ups, and damage, ensuring patient safety.

As the pharmaceutical and medical device industries operate in an increasingly complex and globalized environment, understanding and implementing GDP is crucial for protecting patient health, maintaining public trust in healthcare systems and ensuring compliance with EU regulations. Additionally, it fosters trust in the supply chain, ensuring that products reach healthcare providers and patients as intended.
