FDA 483's

FDA Regulatory Intelligence Database

FDA Form 483 Inspection Observation Database

Company-wise FDA Form 483 observation records, regulatory resources, GMP learning, searchable source records and pharmaceutical microbiology inspection intelligence.

Important Regulatory Note

FDA Form 483 observations are inspectional observations made by FDA investigators during an inspection. They are not, by themselves, final FDA determinations of compliance or non-compliance.

The analytical risk categories used in a future expanded version of this database will be classifications created by PharmaceuticalMicrobiology.in for educational analysis. They are not official FDA Critical, Major or Minor classifications.

This page currently focuses on the reviewed source records and company-wise observation counts. Individual observations should be separately reviewed and classified before analytical conclusions are assigned.

Dabur India & Hetero Labs — Added to Database

Dabur India Limited — 2026

Source: Dabur India FDA Form 483 2026

Database status: Source link added; observation count pending direct source verification.

The article URL contains “2026-7”, but the dashboard does not automatically interpret a URL slug as proof of seven observations. Once the source article is directly reviewable, the observation count and individual observation themes can be populated here.

How This FDA 483 Database Works

Each FDA Form 483 is treated as an inspection source record. Individual observations can subsequently be entered as separate database records after review of the corresponding source article.

Future observation-level fields may include company, facility, inspection date, observation number, GMP category, sub-category, product type, microbiology relevance, data-integrity relevance, contamination-control relevance and analytical risk category.

This structure is designed to support future company-wise, category-wise, microbiology-focused, risk-focused and year-wise regulatory intelligence analysis.

Current database status: 13 company/source records are included. Hetero Labs Limited Unit-IX has six source-verified observation themes. Dabur India Limited is included as a source record, but its observation count remains pending direct verification. Detailed risk/category classification should be completed from the underlying source articles before analytical conclusions are displayed.
