OEM Supplements in Malaysia – Why?

OEM Supplements Introduction

OEM supplements just mean the manufacturing of supplements with a factory.

In fact supplements, are a multi-billion dollar industry. OEM supplements often take the form of sachets, capsules, tablets, or pills that contain concentrated amounts of nutrients and minerals designed to supplement the diet. OEMs typically include one or more ingredients from a list that may be specified by an international standard such as USP (United States Pharmacopeia) monographs for quality control purposes. The term “OEM” refers to “original equipment manufacturer.” OEMs are used in medical settings when health professionals feel patients need additional nutritional support beyond what they can get through their regular diet.

How come such tremendous opportunity?

Thus supplementation comes into play. Furthermore adding to this Poor lifestyle has resulted in an upsurge in non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol.

In general, locally manufactured products are approved faster than imported, as the factories capable of manufacturing such items are pre-registered with the Ministry of Health Malaysia and are subjected to annual audits to ensure safety and compliance.

Logistics
