Abstract
The study examines the evolving regulatory framework for complex generics in India, emphasizing the role of the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) in ensuring quality, safety, and efficacy. Complex generics, such as liposomes, inhalation products, and drug-device combinations, present unique challenges in characterization, bioequivalence, and approval pathways. The research highlights gaps in current guidelines, the need for harmonization with international standards (USFDA, EMA), and the importance of scientific review capacity building. Strengthening regulatory clarity, promoting innovation, and expediting approvals are essential to enhance market access and global competitiveness of Indian manufacturers.
