Keeping apprised of trends, regulations, and new technologies ensures compliance with Good Manufacturing Standards (cGMP) and keeps you in good standing with the FDA.

The FDA increased issuance of warning letters by 53% from 2017 to 2018.

The FDA has a particular focus on homeopathic drug manufacturers and manufacturers of human cell and tissue products, with three and four warning letters, respectively, in 2018.

Lack of validation; Data integrity; Procedures not written, or not fully followed; Poor investigations of discrepancies or failures (OOS/CAPA); Absence of written procedures.
