Your Pharmacovigilance Master File — Set Up, Maintained, Inspection-Ready

Auriga creates and manages your PvMF from scratch, ensuring it meets IPC PV Guidance V2.0, CDSCO requirements and GVP Module II at all times.

What is a Pharmacovigilance Master File?

The Pharmacovigilance Master File (PvMF) — also referred to as the Pharmacovigilance System Master File (PSMF) in the European context — is a detailed description of the pharmacovigilance system used by a Marketing Authorization Holder. It documents the entire structure of the PV system, including personnel, processes, IT systems, contracted activities, and quality management arrangements.

In India, the IPC PV Guidance Document Version 2.0 requires every MAH to prepare, maintain, and make the PvMF available for CDSCO inspection at any time. In Europe, the PSMF is mandated by GVP Module II and the EU pharmacovigilance legislation.

CDSCO Requirement: The PvMF must identify the Qualified Person Responsible for Pharmacovigilance (PVOIC), describe the organisational structure, list all marketed products, and document the quality system procedures. Absence of a current PvMF during inspection constitutes a critical deficiency.
