In November 2024, one Food and Cosmetics company received an FDA inspection in Iowa, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This was the lowest number of inspections per type of company made by the FDA in Iowa, equalling 25% of all inspections in November 2024.

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.
