How this letter sits against the other 185
Our reading, from the 186 letters on this register — not part of the FDA’s document.
No other letter on this register carries the date January 20, 2026. The agency acted against this company on its own that day, which is uncommon here — most of the letters we hold arrived in sweeps.
A warning letter is the agency putting a company on notice, not a court finding and not a ban. What it is worth to you is in what it alleges, so read the original on fda.gov rather than the fact that one exists.
From the letter

You registered your facility with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as an outsourcing facility under section 503B of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) [21 U.S.C. § 353b]1 on February 4, 2025. From July 14, 2025, to July 18, 2025, FDA investigators inspected your facility, GenoGenix LLC, located at 2840 NW 2nd Ave, Suites 204 & 205, Boca Raton, FL 33431. During the inspection, the investigators noted that drug products you produced failed to meet the conditions of section 503B of the FDCA necessary for drugs produced by an outsourcing facility to qualify for exemptions from certain provisions of the FDCA. In addition, the investigators noted serious deficiencies in your practices for producing drug products, which put patients at risk.
Under section 503B(b) of the FDCA, a compounder can register as an outsourcing facility with FDA. Drug products compounded by or under the direct supervision of a licensed pharmacist in an outsourcing facility qualify for exemptions from the drug approval requirements in section 505 of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. § 355(a)], the requirement in section 502(f)(1) of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. § 352(f)(1)] that labeling bear adequate directions for use and the Drug Supply Chain Security Act requirements in section 582 of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. § 360eee-1] if the conditions in section 503B of the FDCA are met.2
An outsourcing facility, which is defined in section 503B(d)(4) of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. § 353b(d)(4)], is a facility at one geographic location or address that — (i) is engaged in the compounding of sterile drugs; (ii) has elected to register as an outsourcing facility; and (iii) complies with all of the requirements of this section. Outsourcing facilities must comply with other applicable provisions of the FDCA, including section 501(a)(2)(B) [21 U.S.C. § 351(a)(2)(B)], regarding current good manufacturing practice (CGMP), and section 501(a)(2)(A) [21 U.S.C. § 351(a)(2)(A)], regarding insanitary conditions. Generally, CGMP requirements for the preparation of drug products are established in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 210 and 211.
In addition, for a drug product compounded using bulk drug substances to qualify for exemptions under section 503B, the bulk drug substances that are used must appear on a list established by the Secretary identifying bulk drug substances for which there is a clinical need (“503B bulks list”), or the compounded drug must appear on the drug shortage list in effect under section 506E of the FDCA at the time of compounding, distribution, and dispensing (section 503B(a)(2)(A)(i) of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. § 353b(a)(2)(A)]).
Furthermore, for a compounded drug product to qualify for the exemptions under section 503B, the labeling of the drug must include certain information (section 503B(a)(10) of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. §353b(a)(10)]).]
Moreover, for a compounded drug product to qualify for the exemptions under section 503B, it must be compounded in an outsourcing facility that is in compliance with the registration and reporting requirements in section 503B(b), including the requirement to submit a report to FDA upon initially registering as an outsourcing facility, once in June of each year, and once in December of each year identifying the drug products compounded during the previous 6-month period (section 503B(b)(2) of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. §353b(b)(2)]), and the requirement to submit adverse event reports to FDA “in accordance with the content and format requirements established through guidance or regulation under section 310.305 of title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (or any successor regulations)” (section 503B(a)(1), (b)(5) of the FDCA [21 U.S.C. § 353b(a)(1), (b)(5)]).
During the inspection, the FDA investigators noted that drug products produced by your facility failed to meet the conditions of section 503B. For example, the investigators noted:
1. Your facility compounded drug products using bulk drug substances that are not eligible for the use in compounding under section 503B, including 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium iodide (5-Amino-1MQ) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Drug products compounded using 5-Amino-1MQ and NAD+ are not eligible for the exemptions provided by section 503B, because 5-Amino-1MQ and NAD+ do not appear on the 503B bulks list and are not used to compound a drug that appears on the drug shortage list.3

What FDA warning letters mean
It is the agency writing to a company to say it believes something that company is doing breaks the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act — usually a claim on a website, a labeling choice, or how a drug is being made. The company has about fifteen working days to write back.
Read carefully what it is not. It is not a recall, not a criminal charge, and not a court deciding anyone broke the law. It is the regulator opening a file. Companies frequently answer a letter, fix what was cited, and carry on trading, and when FDA accepts that it can issue a close-out letter. We do not track close-outs, so the presence of a letter on this page tells you what FDA said on one date — not where the matter stands today. Ask the company; they will usually tell you, and how they answer is informative in itself.
Across this market the same three citations recur: claiming a compounded product is equivalent to an approved one, labeling that misleads, and compounding from bulk substances FDA has not cleared under sections 503A and 503B. If you are reading a letter here, it is probably one of those.

Editorial Disclaimer
This is a public communication from a regulator, and by itself it settles nothing about whether the company broke any law. Corrective action is a common response, and a fair number of letters end in a close-out. Read the whole thing on fda.gov through the link above rather than taking our excerpt as the full picture.
