There were two companies in a city associated with Pulaski County that received FDA citations as a result of two inspections conducted in the county in 2025, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
This is unchanged from the number of companies cited in the previous year.
The citations in the county were ‘You did not establish written procedures for cleaning the physical plant and pest control’ and ‘An investigation was not conducted in accordance with the signed statement of investigator and investigational plan’.
Both companies cited should take voluntary actions to correct their managing operations.
The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.
According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety and quality.
