The guidance also clarifies that meeting an applicable United States Pharmacopeia (USP) compendial standard alone is not generally sufficient for meeting the current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) requirements for the manufacture of injectable products. The draft states that "the light intensity of the inspection station is also central to achieving maximum visibility. The meeting }
