- Summary: An FDA inspection of Allergan Sales, LLC's ophthalmic drug manufacturing facility in Waco, TX, was conducted from March 16-20, 2009. The inspection focused on the company's Quality and Production Systems, including sterile operations, and adhered to regulatory guidelines such as CPGM 7356.002 (Drug Manufacturing Inspections) and CPGM 7356.002A (Sterile Drug Products), utilizing an Abbreviated Inspection Option.
