Hyderabad: Aurobindo Pharma has recently announced that the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has issued FORM 483 with 3 observations after the inspection at its Andhra Pradesh facility.

An FDA Form 483 is issued to firm management at the conclusion of an inspection when an investigator(s) has observed any conditions that in their judgment may constitute violations of the Food Drug and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act and related Acts.

The USFDA has inspected the Company's Unit XI, an API non-antibiotic manufacturing facility situated at Pydibhimavaram, Srikakulam District, Andhra Pradesh, from July 25 to August 2, 2022.
