DURING AN INSPECTION OF YOUR FIRM WE OBSERVED:
Quality System


OBSERVATION 1

An NDA-Field Alert Report was not submitted within three working days of receipt of information concerning
bacteriological contamination and significant chemical, physical, or other change or deterioration in a distributed drug
product.
Specifically,
On 2008, your firm received a heightened number of uncharacteristic musty odor consumer complaints for Tylenol Arthritis
Relief Caplets (TAR) lots 08BMC013 (approximately 27 complaints) and 08BMC020 (approximately 49 complaints).
However, no formal investigation was conducted even though your firm received over eight (8) complaints associated to
gastrointestinal adverse events reports. Although organoleptic examination confirmed the presence of the odor in September
2008, your firm concluded that based on macroscopic and microscopic examination the odor does not originate from the
presence of microorganisms in the product or container closure. Your quality unit failed to conduct additional testing to
evaluate the possibility of chemical contamination or other change or deterioration in the distributed drug product. No field
alert was generated in 2008 for the distributed drug product.
Afterward, your firm received atypical trends of uncharacteristic odor complaints and associated adverse event reports for
lots 09BMC034, 09CNC036, and 09CMC040 since April, June, and August 2009 respectively, but the trend was not
discovered until 08/03/2009. A Contract Operations Quality Management (COQM) Investigation Report (CIR# (b) (4)
was generated on 09/17/2009. A field alert was not initiated until 09/18/09.and a recall was initiated on 12/04/09 during the
current inspection.

OBSERVATION 2

Investigations of an unexplained discrepancy did not extend to other batches of the same drug product and other drug
products that may have been associated with the specific failure or discrepancy.
Specifically,
A. Since April 2009, your firm has received an increasing trend of uncharacteristic smell consumer complaints for Tylenol
Arthritis Caplets (TAR). According to Investigation CIR # (b) (4) initiated on 09/17/09, the trend was discovered on 08/03/09. Interim reports for investigation CIR # (b) (4) , approved on 10/28/09 and 12/11/09 concluded that the most probable root cause for the uncharacteristic odor complaints is the proximity of chemically treated wood from pallets and empty bottles transported from the bottle manufacturer to the product packager. However, since the date of the discovery, your firm did not extend the assessment of the event to other products that received packaging components from the same supplier, such as Rolaids, which received over ten (10) musty-moldy odor consumer complaints. Your firm neither extended the assessment to other products that received similar complaints such as Tylenol Extra Strength (ESK), which received over thirty-nine (39) musty-moldy odor consumer complaints including three (3) adverse event reports. Even though the investigation has not identified a root cause for the event, your Quality Unit did not conduct an evaluation of other possible sources of contamination at your site, external contractors, and suppliers. B. Your firm did not take an action with the distributed finished product, Motrin IB Caplet 24 count bottle, lot SDA149 which was manufactured using granulation lot SDA0001017 that was involved in the manufacture of two (2) recalled lots, SHC003 and SHC004 (Motrin IB Caplet, 8 caplet vial). On 11/20/08 your laboratory detected a failure in the stability dissolution results (stages 1-3 (S1/S2/S3)) of the three (3) months time point stability samples of lot SHC003. Investigation # (b) (4) initiated on 11/20/08 included additional testing of retain compression samples of associated granulation batches. On 12/16/08 your laboratory obtained out of specification dissolution results for retain samples of the bulk compression lot SDA0000807 used in the manufacture of finished product lot SHC004. The investigation # (b) (4) revealed an extended downtime of (b) (4) due to electrical failure and for ten (10) additional minutes due to a broken bag situation during the manufacturing drying process of granulation lot SDA0001017. This granulation lot was used for the manufacture of finished product lots SHC003, SHC004, and SDA149. Investigation # (b) (4) did not find a root cause for the dissolution failures. On 03/10/09, your technical services department generated the Development Report No. (b) (4) 77 to simulate the extended downtimes during the granulation drying and coating processes and to document the impact on the dissolution of Motrin IB Caplet. The development study concluded that the extended downtimes in granulation and coating have no impact on Motrin IB Caplet Dissolution. However, the actual conditions such as electrical failures, temperature and sensor problems, computer and instrument problems that may affect the process critical parameters during extended downtimes were not considered during the study.

McNeil Healthcare, LLC Road #183, km 19.8 CITY, STATE, ZIP CODE, COUNTRY TYPE ESTABLISHMENT INSPECTED Las Piedras, PR 00771 Drug Manufacturer Your Quality Unit documented an amendment to investigation # (b) (4) through investigation (b) (4) on 09/18/09 to include additional assessment and testing findings. On 09/22/09, an atypical value of 57% (minimum limit 55%) with a dissolution range of 57%-103% and an average of 96% were obtained in stage 3 for additional testing of compression bulk lot SDA0000808, which was manufactured using the granulation lot SDA0001017 (subsequently used for packaging lot SDA149). Even though the investigation did not identify a root cause for the atypical behavior of lots SHC003, SHC004 and SDA149, corrective actions were isolated to lots SHC003 and SHC004 and not to the distributed drug product lot SDA149. There is no assurance that the causes affecting these lots whether or not they are associated to a failure or discrepancy have been identified and corrected.

OBSERVATION 3

The responsibilities and procedures applicable to the quality control unit are not in writing and fully followed.
Specifically,
A. On September 2008, your firm initiated a "Notification to Management Form" according to procedure "Notification to Management" to notify uncharacteristic musty smell/odor complaints observed since May 2008 for Tylenol Arthritis Caplets (TAR). Nevertheless, your Quality Unit failed to complete the form according to procedure requirements and include a summary of the investigation steps taken, results obtained, corrective and preventive actions taken, conclusions, and site quality recommendation regarding the proposed disposition of the product. The Notification to Management form was not routed to the Quality Site Leader or QA designee for approval. No other record such as an event investigation or COQM Investigation Report (CIR) was generated as required in procedure "Contractor Investigation Procedure" to document the conclusions of the investigation until 09/17/09, one year later. B. Procedures describing the handling of written and oral consumer complaints related to drug products are deficiently written and followed. • Complaint procedures "Requirements for Complaint Handling" and (b) "Handling Complaint Investigations for Third Party Contractors were not followed to monitor complaint data for the identification of possible trends. For example, trends for numerous atypical complaints of uncharacteristic musty smell/odor for Tylenol Arthritis Relief Caplets (over 200 complaints) and Tylenol Extra Strength (over 39 complaints) were not detected nor investigated in a reasonable time period. For example, your firm received multiple uncharacteristic smell consumer complaint reports since May 2008, but the trend was not detected until August 2008. The criteria for the identification, notification, and documentation of trends have not been clearly defined in the procedures.

However, even though your firm received one hundred and twenty-three (123) mix-up related complaints, from which you received over fifty (50) consumer complaint samples for evaluation, none of them have been confirmed. Your Quality Unit considered all complaints as isolated occurrences of unknown origin. Most of the complaint investigations conclude that there is insufficient evidence to absolutely determine that the reported condition occurred at McNeil, even though your firm has reported over twelve (12) mix-up event investigations. In addition, at least seventeen (17) event investigations, four (4) In-Process Assessment Forms (minor events) and four (4) manufacturing "clearance incidences" (detected during verification) have been reported, all of them associated to cleaning deviations.
OBSERVATION 4

There is a failure to thoroughly review any unexplained discrepancy whether or not the batch has been already distributed.
Specifically,
A. Your firm did not investigate extended downtimes observed during the manufacturing process (granulation and coating)
of Motrin to determine the impact of the event in the product even when critical parameters of the process may be impacted. Your procedure "Extraordinary Events during the Granulation Process" does not require the operator to notify the supervisor and generate an investigation for events that may impact the critical process parameters and the drug product. Investigation (b) (4) , issued on 11/20/09, identified twenty-three (23) extended downtime events of Motrin granulation batches for year 2008 ranging from approximately 1) On 04/16/08, during the Motrin IB granulation drying process of lot SDA0001017 (used in the manufacture of lot SDA149 and recalled lots SHC003 and SHC004), the manufacturing operator recorded in the batch record two electrical failures and a broken bag event for a total granulation downtime of not initiate an event investigation at the time of occurrence to determine the impact of the interruptions in the product. Afterward, on 11/20/08 your laboratory detected a failure in the stability dissolution results of the three (3) months time point stability samples of lot SHC003. Out of specification dissolution results were also obtained for lot SHC003 and atypical results for lot SDA149, which were impacted by this event. 2) On 04/06/08, during the Motrin IB granulation of lot SCA0002400, the manufacturing operator recorded a problem with the in the batch record resulting in a downtime of The operator notified the event to the mechanics and technicians which replaced the temperature recorder (RTD). However, there is insufficient information to determine if the exceeded the critical parameter limits of (b) established in the batch record. The last inlet temperature reading recorded in the batch record was . Your firm did not investigate the event at the time of occurrence. B. Your firm failed to conduct a thorough investigation during the evaluation of the presence of unknown peaks observed during the Assay test for Motrin IB product in 2008. The presence of these unknown peaks continues to the present. Jose R Lopez, Investigator SEE REVERSE

Production System

OBSERVATION 5

Written procedures are not followed for the cleaning and maintenance of equipment, including utensils, used in the
manufacture, processing, packing or holding of a drug product.
Specifically,
The established procedures and controls for cleaning and maintenance may not be sufficient to prevent mix-ups and/or
contamination during the manufacturing and packaging process as evidenced by the received mix-up consumer complaints,
deviations, and incidents involving manufacturing and packaging operations. There is no assurance that operators and quality
personnel follow the established procedures for the cleaning and verification of manufacturing and packaging areas and
equipment. Since August 2008 your firm has reported twelve (12) mix-up events from which ten (10) are related to human
error. For example,
A. On 10/01/09, during the set up process of the packaging line No. 2 for ES TYLENOL PM GELTAB 24, the filler operator and the packaging area mechanic detected thirteen (13) TYLENOL PM RAPID RELEASE at the filler machine. Investigation , dated 10/01/09, concluded that the most probable cause for the cleaning failure was human error. Jose R Lopez, Investigator SEE REVERSE

On 09/26/09, during the set up process of the packaging line No.( for ES Tylenol Caplet 150, the filler operator detected one (1) Tylenol PM Geltab (PMJ) at the filler machine. Investigation , dated 09/27/09, concluded that the most probable root cause was ineffective cleaning by the operators. C. On 06/02/09, during the set up process of the packaging Line No.((b for Motrin IB Caplet 100, the filler operator detected two (2) Tylenol PM Caplets (PMK) at the filler machine. Inv , dated 06/02/09, found that the major cleaning performance and verification was inadequate since the packaging operators forgot to remove and install a to the filler machine prior to initiating the packaging process of Motrin IB D. On 05/29/09, the QA Manager of your packaging contractor site notified you that during the packaging process of Tylenol Arthritis (TAR) bulk transfer lot ADA212 the filler operator observed one round white tablet of Tylenol PM (PMK). Your investigation , dated 06/10/09, concluded that the most probable cause is that during the testing of TAR the manufacturing operator involuntarily mixed at least one core tablet of PMK with TAR during product handling. E. On 04/16/09 during the rework activities of Children's Tylenol Meltaway 30 Grape lot ADA072 in packaging Line No.( the packaging operator found a bottle containing Tylenol PM Geltab (PMJ) units at the Reject Station of the induction sealer. Investigation , dated 04/18/09, concluded that the event is associated to an inadequate cleaning performance and verification. F. On 0(9/27/08, during the packaging process of Motrin IB Caplet 300's in Line No.( the operator detected a white 4 (ESK325) caplet. Your investigation , dated 09/29/08, found as the most probable root cause the ineffective cleaning by the packaging operators and verification of QA technician. In addition, since August 2008 your firm has generated approximately seventeen (17) event investigations, four (4) In- Process Assessment Forms (minor events) and four (4) manufacturing "clearance incidences" (detected during verification) all of them associated to cleaning deviations. Moreover, a total of one hundred and twenty-three (123) mix-up related consumer complaints have been received by your firm for the same period. Your Quality Unit classified all the referenced mix-up complaints as isolated occurrences based on the fact that no prior complaints were reported for the specific lot number investigated, and that no quality-related issue could be identified. (Refer to observation # 3 for additional deficiencies related to complaint management system). There is no assurance that the preventive and corrective actions taken are adequate to prevent recurrence. The potential for product mix-up at your facility is a recurrent observation.

CHAPTER 4Preparation and Analysis of RNA The ability to isolate clean intact RNA from cells is essential for experiments that measure transcript levels, for cloning of intact cDNAs, and for functional analysis of RNA metabolism. RNA isolation procedures frequently must be performed on numerousdifferent cell samples, and therefore are designed to allow processing of multiple samplessimultaneously. This chapter begins by describing several methods commonly used toisolate RNA, and concludes with methods used to analyze RNA expression levels, RNAsynthesis rates, and genome-wide location of RNAs.
