USFDA concludes inspection at Lupin’s Madhya Pradesh unit with no observations, stock gains over 2%
In July, the pharma company announced that the US drug regulator inspected its Nagpur oral solid dosage facility from July 3 to July 11, 2023. The inspection was closed with the issuance of a Form-483 with two observations.
Global pharma major Lupin gained more than 2 per cent in trade on Monday after the company announced that the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has completed inspection at its manufacturing facility at Mandideep in Raisen district of Madhya Pradesh with no observations.
The Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) inspection was conducted between August 7 and August 11, 2023, and concluded without any observations, Lupin said in a disclosure to the stock exchanges on Saturday.
A Good Manufacturing Practices certificate is issued for plants that assure proper design, monitoring, and control of manufacturing processes and facilities. It ensures that each batch of products meets quality standards so that consumers know they are both safe and effective.
"The USFDA inspection of our Mandideep Unit-2 facility concluded with no observations. This further reaffirms our commitment to superior quality and compliance standards,” Nilesh Gupta, Managing Director, Lupin, said.
