- Office Name: Atlanta District Office
- Summary: On December 10, 2012, to January 18, 2013, the FDA inspected Medi-Fare Drug & Home Health Center, Inc., observing significant violations. The firm produced drug products without valid prescriptions for individually-identified patients and exhibited serious deficiencies in sterile drug product manufacturing, risking contamination. These issues were noted on an FDA Form 483.

The FDA held a teleconference on February 28, 2013, expressing concerns about the aseptic fill area's design, which was (b)(4) and used for non-sterile activities, increasing contamination risk. The firm agreed not to resume sterile drug production until corrective actions were implemented.
