The United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) conducts inspections of pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities worldwide to ensure compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) standards. These inspections cover facilities that produce both active ingredients and finished products. Failure to comply with cGMP regulations renders any drugs manufactured by a company “adulterated” under the law, indicating they were not produced in accordance with cGMP conditions.
