Aparna Pharma gets VAI classification for facility

Hyderabad: Aparna Pharmaceuticals Private Limited, a manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and Advanced Drug Intermediates announced that its manufacturing facility, Aparna Organics Limited, located at Pydibhimavaram in Srikakulam, Andhra Pradesh has received VAI (Voluntary Action Indicated) classification from the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA). The USFDA audited the facility in September 2023.
