In the first quarter of 2024, seven device companies received seven FDA inspections in Illinois, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This was the second highest number of inspections per type of company made by the FDA in Illinois, equalling 12.7% of all inspections in the first quarter of 2024.

Of all the Illinois companies involved in the device sector, Stericycle, Inc. received the most citations from the FDA in the first quarter of 2024.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplaces and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly for businesses to consistently make smarter business decisions for the future.

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