What does Japan - GMP standard mean?

What is Japan-GMP standard?

Japan-GMP is the Japanese Good Manufacturing Practice standard. In Japan, Japan-GMP has been established since 1974 and came into force in 1975, before EU-GMP (1989), and is constantly being updated to increase difficulty.

Japan-GMP is directly certified by Japan Medicines and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA). The agency is under the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan (MHLW).

In theory, Japan-GMP is equivalent to PIC/S-GMP of PIC/S, EU-GMP of Europe, CGMP-USA of the United States, etc. However, according to Pacific Bridge Medical (PBM), in fact, Japan-GMP often requires stricter quality control and assurance than western countries.
