is That Necessary to Take 18 months Training in schedule c Production Department For Eligibility of Drug Inspector??

Dear Aspirant,

Some state authorities has a requirement of 18 months work experience of production or quality testing of schedule c drugs while some of the states do not have this requirement like Rajasthan.

It is practically possible to become a drug inspector after graduating from a Pharm.D. All you need to do is to clear the state exams.

Checkout the respective state exam such as Gujarat public service commission regarding their syllabus and the application that needs to be filled before the deadline. After clearing the theory exam, you need to clear the personal interview. If you successfully clear both these round, you are set to be a drug inspector class 2 officer.

But As we say work harder to get more better results, so clearing UPSC will get you directly into CDSCO drug inspector.

Coming to the eligibility,

• B.Pharma. Or Medicine with specialization in Clinical Pharmacology/ Microbiology.
• Additional 18 months experience in manufacturing or testing of Schedule C or C1 drugs is also asked in UPSC but is not essential.
  
  You will be safe for applying in most states if you satisfy above stated general eligibility conditions for the post of Drug Inspector. You should also be familiar with the local language and customs of the state for which you are applying. After written exam and document verification, medical exam is also conducted.

Best Wishes!
