This document discusses halal pharmaceuticals and logistics. It defines halal as things permissible under Islamic law and outlines requirements for halal foods, medicines, and supply chain processes. These include using halal-compliant ingredients, separating halal and non-halal products during preparation, storage, and transportation to avoid cross-contamination. The global halal pharmaceutical industry is growing due to rising Muslim populations and incomes creating more demand for authenticated halal medical products. Ensuring halal integrity throughout pharmaceutical supply chains requires continued coordination among industry stakeholders.
