E-DRUG: Supporting Quality Hand Sanitizer Production: USP Seminar Series - Free
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Colleagues,
We wish to inform you that USP and AUDA-NEPAD is hosting free seminars pertaining to the quality and safe use for alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
Alcohol-based hand sanitizer is an important element in infection prevention, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, when quality is compromised, it can be less effective against infection transmission and can also lead to user harm.
Together, we must remain vigilant to help ensure the quality of alcohol-based hand sanitizers throughout production (including its ingredients such as alcohol), labeling, packaging, transportation, and storage, and support the safe use of alcohol-based hand sanitizer, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
USP and AUDA-NEPAD is hosting a global seminar series, Ensuring Quality Hand Sanitizer Production During COVID-19, bringing together leading experts from regulatory agencies, public health institutions, healthcare provider groups, and industry to discuss challenges associated with quality alcohol-based hand sanitizer and provide additional resources to manufacturers and compounders in their efforts to produce, distribute, and use quality alcohol-based hand sanitizers.
