There were five companies in cities associated with Dorchester County, South Carolina, that received five FDA inspections in 2025, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is a 64.3% decrease from the number of companies inspected in the previous year, when 14 companies received 14 inspections.

Most of the companies inspected at the time operate in the Biologics and Food and Cosmetics sectors. The second most common type of company inspected period worked in the Devices sector.

There were four companies in line with FDA regulations who don’t need to adjust their management operations or regulatory/administrative actions. One should take voluntary action to correct the organization’s management operations.

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 and quality.
