This was the lowest number of inspections per type of company made by the FDA in Washington, equalling 1.7% of all inspections in the second quarter of 2023.
The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplaces and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly for businesses to consistently make smarter business decisions for the future.
