Annex 5 on Good distribution practices (GDP) for pharmaceutical products is an excellent Annex that splits the task of GDP into 20, small, easy to digest sections that guide the reader through the process of understanding the complexity of controlling distribution of pharmaceutical products. It contains a comprehensive glossary of terms used in GDP... a useful reference book for anyone involved in Quality Assurance, Manufacturing of marketed products, Clinical Manufacturing and Development. - Industrial Pharmacy.
