## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: Viatris Pharmaceuticals LLC
- Inspection Date: 2022-02-17
- Product Type: drugs
- Office Name: Division of Human and Animal Food Operations - East IV
- Summary: Pfizer Pharmaceuticals LLC in Vega Baja, PR, was cited for failing to ensure that drug products conform to final specifications prior to release. Specifically, the firm's Quality Unit did not adequately control for potential genotoxic N-Nitrosamine impurities, such as Nitrosodiethanolamine (NDELA), in Atorvastatin API used for Lipitor and Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets. This issue stemmed from an insufficient risk assessment and reliance on supplier testing without confirmatory testing for all batches, despite identified risks.
