- Office Name: Office of Pharmaceutical Quality Operations Division I
- Summary: The FDA inspected Vita Pharmacy, LLC dba Talon Pharmacy of Boerne from October 18 to November 2, 2021, identifying serious deficiencies in sterile drug product production, leading to a Form FDA 483. The firm's response dated November 15, 2021, was acknowledged but deemed deficient in several areas.

2.  **Cross-Contamination:** Hazardous drug products produced in the same ISO7 cleanroom as non-hazardous products without adequate containment.
3.  **Dirty Equipment:** Visibly dirty equipment and difficult-to-clean surfaces, including an unknown foreign substance on a HEPA filter grille in the ISO5 area.
4.  **Disinfection Failure:** Failure to disinfect materials during transfer from ISO7 to ISO5 areas.
5.  **Inadequate Smoke Studies:** No smoke studies performed in the ISO5-classified biological safety cabinet (BSC) under dynamic conditions.
6.  **Insufficient Media Fills:** Media fills not performed under the most challenging or stressful conditions
