Laura:
There are no microbial limits for containers that are used for oral dosage forms. However, the dosage forms themselves, which are non-sterile have microbial limits. You do not want  your container to contribute too much to your microbial limits for the dosage form

Hi all,

A colleague wants to know if there are microbial limits for plastic containers. This containers are used for oral dosages. Any references would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
