Adulteration -- a drug is adulterated if...

1. Contains any filthy, putrid, or decomposed substance 2. It has been prepared of held under unsanitary conditions where it may have been contaminated 3. The methods of manufacture do not conform to current GMPs 4. It has been manufactured, processed, packed, or held in any factory, warehouse, or establishment and the owner, operator, or agent of such factory, warehouse, or establishment delays, denies, or limits an inspection, or refuses to permit entry or inspection 5. The container is composed of any poisonous or deleterious substance which may contaminate the drug 6. It contains an unsafe color additive 7. It purports to be a drug in an official compendium, and its strength differs from or its quality or purity falls below the compenium standard, unless the difference is clearly stated on the label (i.e., if the product claims to meet USP standards but its strength or quality does not meet those standards, it is adulterated) 8. It is not in a compendium, and its strength differs from or its quality falls below what it represents (i.e., what is on the label) 9. It is mixed or packed with any substance which reduces its strength or quality of the drug has been substituted in whole or in part. Note: if a product's strength is less than what is represented on its label, it could be both misbranded and adulterated

Adulteration and Misbranding as Applied to Pharmacies

1. Dispensing prescription without authorization causes the drug to be misbranded even if it is labeled correctly by the pharmacist. This is because a prescription drug product is only exempt from the MFG's labeling requirements when it is dispensed pursuant to a valid prescription 2. Misfilling a prescription with the wrong drug, strength, or directions for use will always cause the drug to be misbranded 3. If a misfilled prescription involves the wrong strength of the drug prescribed, it would also be adulterated. This is because the definition of adulteration includes when the strength differs from or quality falls below that which it represents
