Compliance consultation

During my graduate studies, I completed an internship with the MUIH Herbal Dispensary focused on understanding the regulatory requirements for herbal topical products. My expertise is in the following areas:

  • The various categories of topical herbal products such as cosmetics, soaps, over-the-counter drugs, and pesticides
  • The regulatory requirements relevant for the categories above
  • Adulteration and misbranding as it relates to cosmetics and soaps
  • Resources and considerations for small businesses who want to make herbal personal care products

I am available for consultation on these and other compliance-related topics and can share the presentation below:

Below is an example of a specification sheet that I created during my graduate studies. This is a necessary part of GMP documentation to help ensure a product is free from adulteration.
