FDA Issues Device Quality Concern Notice to Hospira

Hospira, a hospital products and anesthesia drug manufacturer, received an FDA notice for the quality of its devices, according to News and Insight.

After an inspection of Hospira's medical device quality systems in Lake Forest, Ill., the FDA issued a list of 10 objectionable conditions in a Form 483. So far in 2013, the company has sent out 11 device notifications, including recalls and corrections.

Hospira's Clayton, N.C., facility recently resumed producing propofol, and plans to re-launch the drug shortly.
