In 2024, seven Veterinary companies received seven FDA inspections in Louisiana, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This was the third highest number of inspections per type of company made by the FDA in Louisiana, equalling 7.7% of all inspections in 2024.

Of all the Louisiana companies involved in the Veterinary sector, Acadia Wholesale & Tobacco Company received the most citations from the FDA in 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.
