FDA 483 - Purina Animal Nutrition, LLC - July 13, 2021

An FDA inspection of Purina Animal Nutrition, LLC in Clifton, TX, revealed two significant observations related to animal food safety. The firm failed to adequately evaluate known or foreseeable hazards, specifically not identifying urea as a hazard in its food safety plan, which led to a multi-state recall due to urea toxicity. Additionally, the company did not reanalyze its food safety plan despite receiving multiple consumer complaints about product-related health issues and deaths.
