Facility Inspection History
The FDA is responsible for inspecting drug manufacturing facilities for violations of good manufacturing practices, such as a lack of documented drug quality testing or contaminated equipment. Below is a timeline of FDA inspections and outcomes for this facility assembled by ProPublica.
The inspections we were able to locate using available FDA data do not include inspections in advance of the release of a new drug product.
When issues are observed, inspectors usually file an FDA 483 form with citations. In more serious cases, the FDA can issue warning letters or even ban the import of drugs from the facility.
- Dec 12, 2024Dec 12, 2024Warning Letter Close-Out
The FDA said issues raised in a previous warning letter were fixed.
This “close-out letter,” which the FDA sometimes publishes, indicates the agency has verified that the company addressed its deficiencies. - Jan 7, 2022Jan 7, 2022Warning Letter
The FDA issued a warning letter laying out significant issues.
The letter is a disciplinary tool the FDA uses to lay out significant violations of manufacturing standards and to outline needed improvements. It often includes a summary of the steps the company had initially pledged to take to correct issues identified during inspections. There may be additional communications, including about issues being resolved, that are not reflected in our database because they have not been made public. - Jun 23, 2021Jun 23, 2021Inspection With Issues
