Drug master files (DMF) help everyone to do business in the pharmaceutical sector. They make it easy for suppliers to keep proprietary information confidential and still reveal all of the information required to get a new drug to market. They make it easy for the drug manufacturer to report required supplier information in the new drug application (NDA) even when that information is confidential. The existence of a good drug master file adds proprietary value to any package component used for drug products. To learn more go to http://www.dmfworkshop.msu.edu
