When the FDA discovers significant violations of its regulations by a manufacturer, it initiates communication with the manufacturer through a Warning Letter. This letter points out the specific violation. The FDA emphasizes that the company must rectify the problem and provides instructions for responding with its corrective plans. The FDA then verifies the adequacy of the company’s corrections. In this course, GMP: Food Manufacturing Warning Letters and Case Studies, several case studies which resulted in the issuance of Warning Letters are discussed.
