Healthcare company Baxter Healthcare Corporation (Baxter) has agreed to pay $18.158 million to resolve its criminal and civil liability arising from Baxter’s failure to follow current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) when manufacturing sterile drug products, the Department of Justice announced today. In a criminal information filed today in the Western District of North Carolina, the government charged that, between July 2011 and November 2012, Baxter introduced into interstate commerce drugs that were adulterated under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) because Baxter did not follow cGMP when making those products.
美國司法部表示:百特醫(yī)療保健有限公司同意支付18158000美元解決因無菌藥品生產(chǎn)不符合cGMP而引起的刑事和民事責(zé)任。在一份刑事信息文件中,政府指責(zé)百特因沒有遵循cGMP生產(chǎn)這些藥品根據(jù)FDCA法案被認(rèn)為摻假。
At North Cove, Baxter manufactured large-volume sterile intravenous (IV) solutions in a clean room that had high-efficiency particulate absorption (HEPA) filters installed in the ceiling.Air was pushed into the clean room through the HEPA filters. As alleged in the information, during the relevant time period, a Baxter employee reported the presence of mold on the HEPA filters to plant management. However, Baxter continued to manufacture IV solutions in that clean room for months while the filters the employee had identified as moldy remained in place.

Subsequent testing of the filters following an unannounced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspection revealed several mold species on the filters.
從后來FDA檢查的一份未對(duì)外公布對(duì)該過濾器的檢驗(yàn)透露,該過濾器長有很多霉菌。
Baxter admitted that it distributed products in interstate commerce that were adulterated in violation of the FDCA.
