Amidst the existing challenges confronting the South African market and regulatory bodies concerning quality management, Torus Health Care's approach to research, development, and quality, becomes critically significant... Torus Health Care's approach to research, development, and quality becomes even more crucial amidst the current challenges faced by the South African market and regulatory bodies regarding quality management and the control thereof. The South African Health Products Regulatory Authority (SAHPRA) is presently dependent on manufacturers to conform to its proposed and standardized regulations since it is facing challenges in effectively assessing the efficacy, safety, and quality of complementary medications and supplements, including their respective ingredients, prior to their introduction into the market. Despite furnishing unambiguous guidelines, the task of evaluating the compliance of supplements with these regulations' rests largely on the manufacturers themselves.
Several unethical brands, often produced in unregistered facilities (sometimes even at the back of home garages), exploit this loophole to inundate the market with unsafe, substandard, unregulated products that not only prove to be ineffective but also pose a risk to the consumer's well-being.

 

It is crucial to understand that this lack of regulation implies that there is no assurance regarding the composition of the product. Furthermore, there may be variations in the quantity of ingredients from one batch to the next. While the SAHPRA mandates supplement manufacturers to conform to the Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP), which are formulated to guarantee the quality and safety of these supplements, enforcement of these guidelines is currently not in effect. Nevertheless, certain supplement manufacturers, such as Torus Health Care, which are operated by registered pharmacists and pharmacologists - the sole professionals authorized to manufacture medicines - exhibit their dedication to creating superior-quality products by enlisting their brands with SAHPRA. Torus Health Care has implemented robust procedures, verifications, and documentation to comply with the standards and regulations of the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority (SAHPRA).
 

The following are the qualifiers that determine the quality of a product:

  • Manufacturers of complementary medicines must comply with all relevant aspects of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) as specified in the latest version of the "GUIDE TO GOOD MANUFACTURING PRACTICE FOR MEDICINES IN SOUTH AFRICA" by SAHPRA.

  • The ingredients used in the supplement should be of high quality, sourced from reliable suppliers, and be pure.

  • The effectiveness and safety of the supplement depend on the quality of its ingredients.

  • The supplement must contain the recommended dosage of each ingredient as specified on the label. Overdosing or underdosing may have adverse effects on your health.

  • The supplement must be standardized from batch to batch and free of any harmful levels of contaminants or potential drug contaminants. The product doesn’t contain any undeclared ingredients.

  • The supplement's claims of effectiveness and safety of its ingredients must be supported by scientific evidence obtained from reliable sources, including clinical studies and research papers.

  • Certificate of Analysis (COA) for every ingredient included in the product is another significant objective indicator of product quality.

  • Owners of the product must furnish accurate details regarding the ingredients and recommended dosage of the supplement, while also abstaining from any deceptive or misleading marketing practices.

  • Moreover, responsible distribution of the supplement is critical to preserving its quality, preventing contamination or adulteration, and ensuring that it is stored, shipped, and sold safely
