CGMP Deviations
The manufacturing process itself
The FDA found the process itself out of compliance, usually before any defective product was identified.
This is a manufacturing or quality failure, not a finding that the medicine is unsafe to take — across every recall we hold, none was issued for that reason. It does not mean the batch was harmless.
