Each schedule under the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules, 1945 is reserved for one specific area, so knowing what the other schedules cover helps confirm what Schedule T covers.
- GMP for ASU drugs: Schedule T is the schedule written for the traditional medicine sector, giving GMP norms for Ayurvedic, Siddha, and Unani drug manufacturers, including plant layout, equipment, and quality control for these systems of medicine.
- GLP and requirement of premises and equipment: General premises and equipment conditions for manufacturing licences are addressed in Schedule M and Schedule L1, which are separate from Schedule T.
- GMP for Homeopathy medicine: The homeopathic sector has its own schedule, Schedule M-I, which lays down GMP norms for homeopathic drug manufacture.
- GMP for Pharmaceutical product: Standard allopathic drug manufacturing GMP requirements are set out in Schedule M, again a different schedule from Schedule T.
Because Schedule T is reserved for the ASU drug sector while the other GMP and GLP requirements sit in separate schedules, the correct answer is GMP for ASU drugs.
