QUALITY ASSURANCE CASES (GMP NON-COMPLIANCE)

Item No. I Resumption of Production

Case No. i. M/S HARMANN PHARMACEUTICAL LABORATORIES (PVT) LIMITED, LAHORE

Background of the case:

Mr. Ajmal Sohail, FID conducted inspection of firm on 3rd and 4th October, 2013 to check the GMP compliance of the firm. The FID reported that the firm was operating at unsatisfactory level of compliance with GMP guidelines as per the Drugs Act, 1976 and rules framed thereunder and recommended that the firm may be directed to stop all kinds of manufacturing activities till rectification of the shortcomings and improvement of GMP compliance level. Accordingly, show cause notice was issued to the firm and directed to stop manufacturing of drugs in all sections immediately.

2. The firm in response, instead of replying to the Show Cause Notice issued by CLB, preferred to file a writ petition in Honorable Islamabad High Court Islamabad. The Honorable Court in its order dated 26.11.2013 suspended the show cause notice to the extent to stop manufacturing of drugs till next date of hearing. The Honorable Court while hearing the case on 11.01.2017 constituted a team to be headed by Chairman, CLB (Official in attendance) consisting of Area Federal Inspector of Drugs Lahore, Additional Director Quality Assurance, Islamabad and Dr. Ikram ul Haq Ex-Director of Drugs Testing Laboratory/Ex- Member of CLB and directed to visit the premises of the petitioner and submit report.

3. It is also worthwhile to mention here that renewal of Drug Manufacturing License (DML) of the firm is also due w.e.f. 09.01.2011. A panel was constituted on 24.01.2013 but the firm showed some reservations on panel members and applied for reconstitution of panel. Another panel was constituted by competent authority on 26.11.2014 but the firm raised reservations on panel members and gave a legal notice to Licensing Division . Another letter was issued for renewal of DML of the firm on 31.07.2015, but the firm again sent a legal notice to Licensing Division. Hence, inspection of firm for renewal of DML could not be conducted yet.

Observations of the panel:

The team visited the firm on 24.01.2017 at about 12:30 PM. At the time of visit a person namely Mr. Luqman Ali, who introduced himself as production manager of the firm, was present. A lady, who introduced herself as QC Incharge of the firm, was also present but left the premises before inspection was started.

Mr. Luqman, production incharge was informed that the team has to conduct inspection of firm on the directions of Honorable Court. He told the team that none of owners/Directors of the firm was present at premises and Mr. Haseeb Khan, director of the firm had left just 10 minutes before the arrival of team. He was asked to call Mr. Haseeb Khan, Director and request him to come back so that inspection may be conducted in his presence. Accordingly, Mr. Luqman contacted him on his mobile phone and area FID (Ajmal Sohail Asif) also talked to him and informed about the purpose of inspection and requested him to be present during the course of inspection. Mr. Haseeb Khan told that he was coming, so the team decided to wait for his arrival.

Page 18 of 63

Page 19: Ranking/ Evaluation - Drug Regulatory Authority of … Web view261st meeting of the Central Licensing Board (CLB) was held on 2nd May, 2018 in the Committee Room, Drug Regulatory Authority

Upon inquiring about production status; Mr. Luqman told the team that at that time two batches of syrups namely “No–All and Ammo Plus” were under manufacturing in oral liquid section. He further told that firm was also under maintenance and paint work was being done. Team noted that paint work was being done on the outer side of the building.

While waiting in the lobby of production areas (outside the executive entrance) team saw through the glass door that the workers were walking/running in the production corridor. After about 10 minutes, Mr. Luqman informed the team that Mr. Haseeb Khan, Director/owner of the firm has directed him not to allow the team to visit the firm.

While standing in the lawn of the firm team noted that the workers of the firm were leaving the premises. In the meanwhile, a person namely Mr. Asif Khan, who told himself to be the security guard/supervisor (without any uniform), also conveyed the team that Mr. Haseeb Khan Director/owner has directed that team may not be allowed to inspect the firm and asked the team to leave the premises (it is worth mentioning here that he had a naked pistol (without holster) in his hand while talking to the team and moving here and there – there was no need to exhibit weapon in their own premises .

Team asked Mr. Luqman that he being production manager is a responsible person for manufacturing and he should let the team to inspect the firm as he is bound under section 20 of the Drugs Act, 1976 which is read as:

“20. Persons bound to disclose place where drugs are manufactured or kept:

Every person for the time being in charge of any premises whereon any drug is being manufactured or is kept for sale or distribution shall, on being required by an Inspector so to do, disclose to the Inspector the place where the drug is being manufactured or is kept, as the case may be.”

But he refused and told that as per owner’s direction he could not allow the team to inspect the premises. However, considering the persistent denial of the firm regarding inspection, the team suspecting the possibility of GMP violations (that may endanger the public health) decided to enter the production areas to fulfill the duty in compliance to Honorable Court’s orders and as empowered by the Drugs Act, 1976 and rules framed thereunder.

Team then entered the production area along with Mr. Luqman, Production manager and noted that the firm has locked many of the rooms such as raw materials store, finished goods store, packing materials store and entrance doors leading to first floor (injection section/cream ointment section/capsule section & quality control/microbiology laboratory). Team of inspectors asked Mr. Luqman to open the locks of all the manufacturing sections but he denied and told that the person with keys has left the premises. Only areas open/accessible were tablet section, oral liquid section and workers change rooms. Thus, the team could only inspect the open areas with the help of mobile phone flash lights as the firm also shut down the electricity supply few minutes after the team entered the production areas. The observations were as follows:

i. Change rooms:The firm has provided separate change rooms for male and female workers. Separate entrance for executives was provided.

The change rooms were not neat and clean. The cabinets were dirty and rusty. The fixtures for tube lights were not properly affixed and were loose producing recesses and staying area for dust and dirt. There was water seepage on walls. The change rooms were stinking; no means of fresh air/air conditioning was provided.

Page 19 of 63

Page 20: Ranking/ Evaluation - Drug Regulatory Authority of … Web view261st meeting of the Central Licensing Board (CLB) was held on 2nd May, 2018 in the Committee Room, Drug Regulatory Authority

ii. Oral liquid section, it was comprised of:a. A room for solution preparation containing storage and manufacturing vessels of different sizes and mixers. The room was not neat and clean. A small room connected to this room was very dirty, having seepage on walls, the sanitary conditions of this room were very unhygienic.The team noted that firm was involved in active manufacturing in this section at the time of inspection and it was evident that the firm after arrival of the inspection team let the workers to leave the premises and the batches of drugs under manufacturing were left as they were. It was noted that a batch of syrup namely “Ammo Plus, Batch No.3481, batch size 1000 liter” was present in a manufacturing tank. On the window of the room a label “Line Clearance Certificate” was fixed by adhesive tape showing that area was being used for manufacturing of Ammo Plus, Batch No. 3481 on 24.01.2017. A container was containing some liquid material bearing a label “Zofen Tab, Coating material” showing that this syrup manufacturing area was also being used for other purposes such as for preparation of coating solutions for tablets, which is also a severe GMP non-compliance and may lead to cross-contamination.

b. A room for oral liquid filling having two filling machines and an attached small room having a bottle blowing machine. Liquid filling room was connected to packing room through conveyor belt. This area was not provided with HVAC system which is required for environmental control and to avoid cross-contaminations.Team noted that a batch of syrup No-All, Batch No. 3480 was being packed and some quantity of packed/unpacked filled bottles were left on the packing table when the workers left the premises.

iii. Tablet Section, it was comprised of:a. A room for dry and wet granulation, drying & final mixing. This room was not neat and

clean. There was powder and dust on floor, walls, and electrical panels. The fluidized bed dryer in section was very dirty. It was rusty and its bottom air duct for supply of hot air was full of powder. Even cobwebs were seen in the airway.There were about 9 drums full of different tablets of different colours in polythene bags of different sizes and powder/granules of some unidentified materials. Some of the bags were labeled with marker, whereas, majority were unidentified. Storage/stocking of these different loose tablets and powder/granules in this manufacturing area could not be justified by the production manager. Presence of such different unidentified tablets/powder/granules is a serious violation of GMP as it has potential for cross-contamination and mix-ups.

b. A compression room, accessed through a buffer that opened into a lobby having three cubicles with compression machines. The compression cubicles were provided with HVAC. The lobby was not provided with HVAC, suggesting that it was not possible to maintain the negative pressure of compression cubicles that may pose a great risk of cross contamination. The doors and cubicles of this area were made of aluminum and glass and were not properly maintained. There were open drainage holes in the compression cubicles.c. A coating room having entry through a buffer and a solution preparation room was provided. This area was not provided with HVAC. There was water seepage on walls. There was no equipment for preparation of coating solution.d. A blistering room; this room was not provided with HVAC. The room was dirty. Open electrical wires were hanging, filled with dust and powder at the connection point of ceiling fan.

iv. Capsule section: could not be inspected because entrance door to this section was locked by the firm and was not opened even when asked.v. Ointment/Cream/Gel section: could not be inspected because entrance door to this section was locked by the firm and was not opened even when asked.

vi. Injectable section: could not be inspected because entrance door to this section was locked by the firm and was not opened even when asked.

Page 21: Ranking/ Evaluation - Drug Regulatory Authority of … Web view261st meeting of the Central Licensing Board (CLB) was held on 2nd May, 2018 in the Committee Room, Drug Regulatory Authority

ix. Finished goods store: could not be inspected because entrance door was locked by the firm and was not opened even when asked.x. Quality Control: could not be inspected because entrance door was locked by the firm and was not opened even when asked.

Conclusion:

Based on the areas inspected, and considering the findings of the inspection, the team of inspectors was of the opinion that M/s Harmann Pharmaceutical Laboratories (Pvt) Limited, situated at 16 Km, Multan Road, Lahore was Not Complying with GMP requirements as per Schedule B-II required under Rule 20 of the Drugs (Licensing, Registering & Advertising) Rules, 1976.

The team of inspectors also observed that the firm was Not Complying with the conditions of license as required under Rule 16, 19 & 20 of Drugs (Licensing, Registering & Advertising) Rules, 1976.

The management of the firm created resistance and obstruction in the inspection of the team by shutting down the electricity and not opening the locked areas as mentioned above, which is a clear violation of Rule 19(8) of the Drugs (Licensing, Registering & Advertising) Rules, 1976 which is read as:

“19. Conditions of licence to manufacture, by way of basic manufacture, semi-basic manufacture formulation and repacking of drugs:

(8) The licensee shall allow any member of the Central Licensing Board or of a Provincial Quality Control Board or an Inspector to enter, with or without prior notice, any premises and to inspect the plant and the process of manufacture & the means employed in standardising and testing the drugs and to take samples for test and analysis.”

And is also an offence under Schedule III of the DRAP Act, 2012, which is read as:

“(3) Obstruction of Inspector - Whoever obstructs an Inspector in the exercise of any power conferred upon him by or under this Act, or disobeys the lawful authority of any Inspector, shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to one year, or with fine which may extend to one lakh rupees, or with both.”

Recommendations:

Keeping in view the findings of the inspection and conclusion, the team of inspectors recommends that:

i. The firm may be directed to stop all kinds of manufacturing activities immediately, because of GMP non-compliance, in greater public interest.

ii. The Drug Manufacturing License of the firm may be cancelled for not complying with the licensing conditions.iii. Legal action may be taken against the firm for obstructing the lawful authority of inspectors.
