3. REGULATORY AGENCIES- INTRODUCTION
In the present scenario, pharmaceuticals- considered as the most highly regulated
industries worldwide.
The regulatory body ensures compliances in various legal and regulatory aspects of
a drug.
Every country has its own regulatory authority, which is responsible to enforce the
rules and regulations and issue the guidelines to regulate drug development
process, licensing, registration, manufacturing:
The major challenges of these regulatory bodies are
* To promote public health and protect the public from harmful and dubious drugs,
* To establish proper legalization covering all products with a medicinal claim and
all relevant pharmaceutical activities, whether carried out by the public or the
private sector.
* To increase worldwide regulatory growth to ensure safety of people., marketing
and labeling of pharmaceutical products.

5. Herbal drugs are regulated under the Drug and Cosmetic Act (D and C)
1940 and Rules 1945 in India, where regulatory provisions for
Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha medicine are clearly laid down.
Department of AYUSH is the regulatory authority and mandate that
any manufacture or marketing of herbal drugs have to be done after
obtaining manufacturing license, as applicable.
Effective drug regulation is required to ensure the safety, efficacy
and quality of drugs as well as accuracy and appropriateness of the
drug information available to the public
5HERBAL DRUG TECHNOLOGY Aravind R
6. The need for pharmaceutical drug analysis is driven largely by
regulatory requirements.
A team consisting of R&D, QC, and QA unit members develops
these quality and compliance systems.
It should be one of the highest priorities of top management and
QA units to develop and monitor these systems to comply with the
cGMP and GLP expectations.
Compliance documents are needed, in addition to the regulatory
and research documents, to demonstrate the integrity of the
data.
Compliance documents refer to those reports required by GMP
and/or utilized during the course of inspection by a health
authority.

7. Product registration (drug evaluation, authorization, and
monitoring of drug efficacy and safety);
Regulation of drug manufacturing, importation, and
distribution;
Regulation & Control of drug promotion and information.
Adverse drug reaction (ADR) monitoring.

8. Herbal drugs are regulated under the Drug and Cosmetic
Act (D&C) 1940 and Rules 1945 in India, where
regulatory provisions for Ayurveda, Unani, Sidha
medicine are clearly laid down.
Department of AYUSH is the regulatory authority and
mandate that any manufacture or marketing of herbal
drugs have to be done after obtaining manufacturing
license, as applicable.
The D & C Act extends the control over licensing,
formulation composition, manufacture, labelling,
packing, quality and export.
Schedule “T” of the act lays down the good
manufacturing practice (GMP) requirements to be
followed for the manufacturing of herbal medicines.
8HERBAL DRUG TECHNOLOGY Aravind R
9. The official Pharmacopoeias and formularies are
available for the quality standards of the medicines.
First schedule of the D & C Act has listed authorized
texts, which have to be followed for licensing any
herbal product under the two categories: ASU drugs &
Patent or proprietary medicines.
In India, traditional medicines are governed by the
Drugs and Cosmetics Act of 1940 and the Drugs and
Cosmetics Rules of 1945.
They regulate the import, manufacture, distribution
and sale of drugs and cosmetics.
9HERBAL DRUG TECHNOLOGY Aravind R
10. In 1959, the Government of India recognized the traditional Indian
system of medicine and amended the Drugs and Cosmetics Act to
include drugs which are derived from traditional Indian Medicine.
No products derived from traditional systems may be manufactured
without a licence from the State Drug Control Authorities.
Patent and proprietary medicines derived from the traditional systems
must contain ingredients which are mentioned in the recognized books
of the above systems, as specified in the Drugs and Cosmetics Act.
The government in advised by a special committee and an advisory
board for Ayurveda, Siddha and Unani drugs.
Pharmacopoeia committees have been constituted to prepare
Pharmacopoeias for all these systems.
Schedule Z of the D and C act, 1940 was amended for regulation for the
Clinical trial guidelines for ASU drugs.

39. Schedule Z -good clinical
practices (GCP) for clinical
trials on ASU medicines
Department of Ayush has adopted and formulated this
guidelines based on CDSCO document on GCP Guidelines that
was released in 2001 for clinical trials on pharma products.
HERBAL DRUG TECHNOLOGY Aravind R 39
40. • Although the ASU systems are known for their long history of safe and effective
use, yet validation of safety and efficacy using scientific and evidence-based
methodologies is needed for the purpose of universal acceptability.
• The arguments of having long standing in the medical practice or market are
often unconvincing and there has been persistent and increasing demand of
documented proof of clinical safety and efficacy of ASU medicine.
• In this perspective, the clinical trials in ASU systems need to be guided on the
principle of ‘Good Clinical Practice’.
• Researchers, sponsors and drug manufacturers, therefore, have to be well
versed with the standard scientific procedures that are required to be followed
while conducting clinical trials with ASU interventions to achieve objective and
reproducible results.
INTRODUCTION
HERBAL DRUG TECHNOLOGY Aravind R 40
41. ➢Good Clinical Practice is a set of guidelines which
encompasses the design, conduct, termination, audit,
analysis, reporting and documentation of the studies
involving human subjects.
➢The fundamental tenet of GCP is that in research on man,
the interest of science and society should never take
precedence over considerations related to the well being
of the study subject.
HERBAL DRUG TECHNOLOGY Aravind R 41
42. • The fundamental objective of Good Clinical Practice guidelines for ASU
medicine include protection of human rights as a subject in clinical trial.
• It also provides assurance of the safety and efficacy of the newly
developed as well as conventionally used ASU formulations.
• These guidelines include standards of how clinical trials should be
conducted; and define the roles and responsibilities of clinical trial
sponsors, clinical research investigators, monitors etc.
• The guidelines on the whole adopt the basic principles outlined by the
CDSCO for engaging in Good Clinical Practice albeit with necessary
modifications to suit the ASU principles and treatment methodologies.
