Stability testing of (api) active pharmaceutical ingredients and finished pharmaceutical products - Annex 10


Stability testing of api and finished pharmaceutical products

Introduction and background


The guidance on Stability testing of active pharmaceutical ingredients and finished pharmaceutical products was published as Annex 2 in the World Health Organization (WHO) Technical Report Series, No. 953, 2009 (1).


The aim of these regulatory guidelines is to outline the core stability data package required for registration of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and finished pharmaceutical products (FPPs), replacing the previous WHO guidelines in this area. The guidelines cross-refer to the series of related documents published by the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) (2) and other WHO guidelines.
