Form 483 lists observations in order of importance that FDA inspectors record during manufacturing site inspections. Each observation noted on the FDA Form 483 is clear, specific and significant and FDA investigators are specially trained about in the matter.

FDA officials communicate their inspection observations on Form 483, and it is usually issued to the manufacturing site after the FDA audit is completed. Observations are not generally made until the investigator’s judgment, conditions or practices observed that any food/drug/device/cosmetic has been adulterated/changed intentionally to its standard practice.

After completion of the Inspection, FDA Form 483s, are discussed with a company’s senior management, regarding the observations of the inspections. To get a full understanding each observation is read and discussed with the company’s senior management so that they get the actual situation regarding inspection observations.

An FDA Form 483, is a report, it does not contain any observations of questionable, or unfamiliar significance at the time of the inspection of a specific firm. It only reports on familiar objectionable conditions. which are observed during the inspection. even if it can’t report other objectionable conditions which didn’t notice during the inspection. The company/Firm is only responsible. to correct the objectionable conditions which are noticed after the completion of the inspection on the due date.
