Description:
Management Of Imported Unregistered FDA Regulated Products In Ghana Through An Effective Warehouse Management System

The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) is mandated by Parts, Six (6), Seven (7) and Eight (8) of the Public Health Act 2012, Act 851 to enforce standards for the safety, efficacy and quality of food, herbal medicinal products, human and veterinary medicines, medical devices, cosmetics and household chemical substances as well as tobacco and conduct of Clinical Trials.

Traditionally, three major options have been available to the regulatory authority with regards to dealing with imports that are not compliant to current regulations; i.e. re-export, destroy/safely dispose or detain the product and brought into compliance.
The FDA detains unregistered imported FDA regulated products in the importer’s warehouses until the importer brings the product into compliance with the requisite regulations. Such products in several instances have been sold or distributed without the approval of the FDA. This contravenes provisions of ACT 851 and may endanger the health of consumers.
