There was one company in a city associated with Buchanan County that received FDA citations as a result of one inspection conducted in the county in October 2024, according to reports from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is an increase over the number of companies cited in the previous month.

The citations in the county include:

• The responsibilities and procedures applicable to the quality control unit are not fully followed.
• Buildings used in the holding of a drug product are not maintained in a good state of repair.
• Failure to maintain a backup file of data entered into the computer or related system.

The company cited was involved in the Drugs and Veterinary sectors.

The company cited should take a voluntary action to correct its managing operations.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.

According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety quality.
