Product Quality and Safety: One Global Standard – Everywhere

Bristol-Myers Squibb is committed to providing the highest quality products and ensuring product integrity during development, commercial manufacturing, distribution, and throughout the product lifecycle. We commit to high-quality medicines that address the unmet medical needs of patients with serious diseases.

• Regular audits are undertaken at our manufacturing facilities and in local markets to ensure compliance with company and regulatory health authority standards.
• Optimizing efforts for cold chain support in India in preparation of the introduction of biologic treatments in the future.
• To help secure products within the distribution chain and combat counterfeit drugs, many developing countries have established or are in the process of establishing laws and regulations requiring products to be serialized and/or to have tamper-evident features on product packaging. These countries include Argentina, India, China, Turkey and Brazil to name a few. Bristol-Myers Squibb has implemented appropriate security technologies to meet this global expectation.
