In February, four Food and Cosmetics companies received four FDA inspections in Maryland, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This was the highest number of inspections per type of company made by the FDA in Maryland, equalling 50% of all inspections in February.

Of all the Maryland companies involved in Food and Cosmetics, Triangle Quality Foods, LLC and Springtime Supplements, Inc. received the most citations from the FDA in February.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.

According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety quality.
