We're committed to delivering the critical nitrosamine impurity data you need to achieve regulatory approval and stay on market
Starting August 2023, approved, marketed, and under review drugs must follow the FDA's risk-based safety assessment guidance for nitrosamine drug substance-related impurities (NDSRIs).
We're here to help you assess and control nitrosamine impurities in your drug products. When you partner with ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½, you'll get the personalized attention and support you deserve from leading scientific experts at the forefront of evolving regulations.
Together, we'll ensure your products are safe and effective - and meet FDA and industry expectations.

Helping you navigate FDA guidance for nitrosamine drug substance-related impurities (NDSRIs)
3 key things to know about the guidance:
- Applies to manufacturers and anyone submitting drug applications, including OTC products; excludes NDSRIs found in products for patients with advanced cancers
- Manufacturers and applicants who haven't previously considered NDSRIs must evaluate risk within 3 months of the new guidance (FDA recommends by November 1, 2023)
- ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ can help you develop and validate methods for the analysis of NDSRIs
By August 1, 2025, the FDA recommends manufacturers and applicants submit data if they fall under 3 specific scenarios:
- Evaluated NDSRI risk previously - perform confirmatory NDSRI testing and submit required drug application changes
- Have drug products with NDSRIs - ensure NDSRIs meet FDA's recommended acceptable intake (AI) limit
- Looking to deviate from the AI limit set by the FDA - scientifically justified rationale must be provided and application changes submitted

We'll help you control and evaluate the risk of nitrosamine impurities
Robust QC testing of chemically synthesized APIs, raw materials, and process reagents is critical to evaluating and assessing the risk of nitrosamine impurities - and controlling and preventing nitrosamine contamination. With a demonstrated history of success testing for nitrosamine impurities, we’ll help you satisfy regulators with robust method development, validation, and testing to detect nitrosamines at low parts per billion (ppb) levels of detection in both drug products and drug substances.
You’ll experience seamless integration with your team - ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½'s experienced scientists with a wealth of knowledge will provide dedicated support. Together, we'll assess the risk of nitrosamine contamination to pharmaceuticals and OTC medications, delivering accurate, high-quality data on your timeline.
Whether your drug product is approved, marketed, or under review, we'll deliver the data you need to achieve regulatory approval, support application changes, and stay on market.
