Context and history

FDA issued this warning letter to Curia New York, Inc. on 18 Sep 2026. It concerns active ingredients, and it is listed here because of what it says about computerised systems or data integrity.

Key points

  • A named system review was not enough: FDA asked for all computerised systems.
  • FDA asked for a route for anonymous concerns.
  • It binds one firm, and it shows how FDA applies existing rules.

In practice

General reading, not advice. This is drafted with AI and may not fit your situation. It does not replace the official text, your own quality system or qualified advice, and an inspector may take a different view.

  • Scope data integrity reviews to all computerised systems in CGMP use.
  • Give staff a way to raise data integrity concerns safely.
