  MANUFACTURING PROCESS:

  1. I) Preparation of Solution:
  2. Take in SS Batch Mixing Tank 70 Lt. of freshly prepared distilled water.
  3. Dissolve Boric Acid and Borax in 10 Ltr. Of water and add to Batch Mixing Tank Stir it properly.
  4. Dissolve Betamethasone sodium phosphate and stir properly.
  5. Dissolve Di Sodium Orthophosphate and monosodium orthophosphate & Tri-Sodium phosphate and add to the mixing tank stir it properly.
  6. Dissolve SMBS & EDTA in water and pour in BMT.
  7. Dissolve Benzylkonium Chloride and to the mixing tank.
  8. Dissolve Neomycin Sulphate and add to the mixing tank.
  9. Dissolve Tween – 80
  10. Adjust the pH to 7.1 (pH RANGE: 6.8 TO 7.2)
  11. Make up the volume to 100.00 Ltr.
  12. Shift the solution from batch mixing tank to pressure vessel and do membrane filtration.
  1. II) Filtration

Filtration is done with the membrane assembly by using the appropriate pre-filter and post filter i.e. membrane

Pre Filter1.5 µ
BMembrane Filter0.2 µ

III) Aseptic Filing

After the process of washing, sterilization Filteration filing of Aseptic filing is carried out in class 100 area under the laminar flow. The machine adjustment is carried out for the appropriate vials.

Filling Station AdjustmentYes/NoYes
BButyl Bung Station AdjustmentYes/NoNo
CSealing Station AdjustmentYes/NoYes
  1. IV) Volume variation is checked intermittently, volume prescribed 5ml, and volume filled 5.05 ml, percentage variation 10%.
  1. V) Labeling

Labeling of vials is done with the help of auto vials labeling machine.

Quarantine Stores

 The packed and labeled vials send to the Quarantine store for an observation period of fourteen days till the Q.C. report is completed. 

Finished Goods Stores

After the completion of the Quarantine period and labeled vials, send to the finished goods store. 

MANUFACTURING SPECIFICATION:

  • The average fill of each vial is 10 ml.
  • The weight variation limit allowed in each filled vial is 10.0 ml to 10.2 ml.
  • Use the accurate quantity of water to make up the final volume of the solution.
  • Filter the completely charged batch using membrane Filteration apparatus using appropriate membrane filter & pre-filter.
  • Transfer the solution from the mixing tank to the pressure tank after the complete charging of the batch.
  • The temperature should be kept at 25°c for the entire operation, relative humidity should be kept at 40% for       entire operation

  Packing Details:

  1. Pack the filled vials in a unit carton
  2. Pack such 24 cartoons in each outer carton
  3. Seal outer carton with cello tape
  4. Pack the 24 outer cartons in the specified corrugated box to give a pack size of 24 x 24 x 10 ml.
  5. Seal the corrugated box with adhesive tape and label it properly by affixing the specified label                               

 IN-PROCESS CONTROLS:-

The following in-process controls should be maintained during the processing.

  • Check raw materials used for manufacturing purposes are all approved materials and have been ‘released’        labels fixed on them.
  • All weighed Raw materials should be counter-checked by Assistant Manufacturing Chemist. If any discrepancy is noticed, it should be immediately brought to the notice of the Production Manager and QC/QA Manager.
  • Physical characteristics of Raw material like color, odor, and consistency are checked before compounding.
  • The final volume should be made as per Standard Operating Procedure.
  • the pH of the bulk should be checked and it should be within specified limits.
  • The bulk sample should be sent for analysis to Q.C. Department before starting the filling and sealing stage.
  • Intermittently filled volume should be checked at 30 minutes intervals by the Assistant Manufacturing Chemist and the record for the same should be kept in Batch Manufacturing Record.
  • The net volume should be checked for all the filling nozzles and in no case, the net volume should be less than the volume claimed on the label. (Limit for volume variation: volume claimed + 5%
  • The labels and cartons should be checked thoroughly for proper batch coding.
  • Intimation should be sent to Q.C. Department for finished product sampling and testing.
  • After the completion of labeling and packaging, the coded labels and cartons should be accounted for, and rejected printed material should be destroyed in the presence of the QC/QA  Manager. Maintain the destruction of the same in the B.M.R.
  • It will ensure that filling or packing equipment has been properly cleaned.
  • Filling or packaging of the next product should not commence until the ‘Line Clearance’ has been given by the Q.C. Analyst.
  • Carry out bubble test for checking the integrity of membrane filter as per SOP.
