What are Migration Levels in Packaging Materials?

Migration refers to the transfer of substances from packaging materials into pharmaceutical products, such as tablets, capsules, or liquids. These substances can include solvents, plasticizers, antioxidants, and other chemicals present in the packaging materials. When these contaminants migrate into the product, they can compromise its quality, stability, and safety.

Why is Testing for Migration Levels Essential?

The consequences of inadequate testing for migration levels can be severe

Non-compliance with regulatory requirements Failure to meet regulatory standards can lead to costly recalls, damaged reputations, and even legal action.
Product contamination Substances migrating from packaging materials into pharmaceutical products can cause harm to patients, leading to adverse reactions or even life-threatening conditions.
Economic losses Non-compliance and product contamination can result in significant financial losses due to recalls, rework, and lost sales.
