FDA doesn't expect o continue increasing GMP inspections at the rate established from fiscal 2013 through 2017, says Cara Welch, assistant director of the office in the agency's Office of Dietary Supplement Programs."We're not going to keep growing at that rate because we have a lot of regulations we have to inspect and we're always resource strapped," she said at a recent industry conference.
FDA doesn't have resources to continue inspecting more dietary supplement facilities every year but it has ample data to increase the effectiveness of the inspections.
