Lupin has recently informed exchanges that the company received the Establishment Inspection Report (EIR) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its Pithampur Unit-1 manufacturing facility. The plant, which produces both active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and finished products, was inspected by the FDA from September 16 to September 27, 2024.
The FDA issued the EIR with a Voluntary Action Indicated (VAI) classification, which signals that while the facility complies with regulatory requirements, certain actions may be voluntarily undertaken by the company to ensure continued adherence to the FDA’s quality standards.
