  API Manufacturing CAPA Systems Strengthening Quality, Compliance & Continuous Improvement By Swapnroop Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Introduction In pharmaceutical manufacturing, quality is not achieved by inspection alone—it is built into the system . One of the most critical pillars of this system is an effective Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) framework . In Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) manufacturing , where complex chemical processes and strict regulatory requirements intersect, CAPA systems play a vital role in ensuring consistent quality, regulatory compliance, and continuous improvement . At Swapnroop Drugs and Pharmaceuticals , CAPA systems are designed to not only address problems but to eliminate root causes and prevent recurrence , aligning with ICH Q7, ICH Q9, ICH Q10, USFDA, WHO-GMP, and EU GMP expectations . What Is a CAPA System in API Manufacturing? A CAPA system is a structured quality process used to: Identify qua...
