On 9 October 2025, the MHRA Inspectorate informed readers that the blog post “A Voyage in Good Distribution Practice (GDP): The Aviation and Marine Sectors” is available on the MHRA website. It discusses the specific GDP challenges associated with supplying medicines to aircrafts, ships, and oil platforms – areas that fall outside the usual scope of a Wholesale Dealer’s Authorisation (WDA(H)).
The article was originally published in June 2025 but was taken down shortly after its initial release for unknown reasons.
The full post is now available again on the MHRA blog, and a summary can be found in our news archive.
