Elkhart Times

There were two companies in cities associated with Elkhart County that received FDA citations as a result of two inspections conducted in the county throughout 2024, according to reports from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is a 50% decrease from the number of companies cited in the previous year.

The citations in the county include:

• A process whose results cannot be fully verified by subsequent inspection and test has not been adequately validated according to established procedures.
• A validated process was not reviewed and evaluated when changes or process deviations occurred.
• Procedures have not been established to control product that does not conform to specified requirements.

Both companies cited should take voluntary actions to correct their 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.
