GOOD VALIDATION PRACTICE (cGVP) LABORATORY, METHOD AND ANALYTICAL VALIDATION
#1

Is there a standardized procedure for Forced Degradation Studies? Thanks

#2

There is an ICH guideline document for photostability

And here is a good paper that should point you in the right direction. Just remember to soundly rationalize the inclusion or exclusion of impurities / degradation conditions.

Hope this helps.
