Talk to a SpecialistTalk to a SpecialistUrban Electric Power, an OTC drug manufacturer, was cited for producing hand sanitizer products contaminated with unacceptable levels of acetaldehyde and acetal impurities, rendering them adulterated. FDA testing of four batches revealed these contaminants across all samples, indicating that the company's quality assurance and manufacturing controls failed to meet Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) requirements. The company's response to FDA's July 2022 information request demonstrated that their manufacturing methods, facilities, and controls continued to fall short of CGMP standards. The firm had distributed hand sanitizer products as recently as August 31, 2022, and was deregistered as a drug manufacturer on October 24, 2022.
