2026-02-02

A Drug Master File is a submission to the FDA that holds confidential information about a material or component. Packaging suppliers use it to support customer filings without disclosing proprietary detail.
What it typically holds
- Material composition and manufacturing information
- Quality control and testing approach
- Supporting data for the material's intended use
How customers use it
- Reference the file in their own submission
- An authorisation letter allows the agency to review the file
- The file supports, but does not replace, the customer's own data
