Laboratorios Eurisko S.L. — EU GMP NCR (EudraGMDP) Findings

During the visit, critical and major deficiencies in compliance with EU Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) were observed in the authorised facilities in building 3. In general, these deficiencies were related to an non-existent Pharmaceutical Quality System and, consequently, affecting all the site’s authorised activities: poor or non-existent supplier approval, control and release of raw materials, facility maintenance and cleaning, access control, management of planned changes and deviations, personnel qualification and training, qualification/calibration control and equipment management, manufacturing operations, prevention of cross-contamination, comply with procedures, management of documentation and data integrity, among others. Furthermore, the inspection revealed an insufficient and ineffective monitoring of the company's review quality system activities, as deficiencies identified in previous inspections have not been addressed. These deficiencies pose a risk to the quality and safety of the veterinary medicinal products manufactured. It should be noted that the company has a history of non-compliance with EU GMP Guidelines according to previous inspection reports. The manufacturing authorisation (MIA) had been suspended in September 2022, following the inspection on November 2021, but suspension was lifted after the inspection on July 2023. In addition, the last day of inspection (June 17th) an adjacent building belonging to the company LABORATORIOS EURISKO, S.L. (located in the "El Molí" Industrial Park, building 1B) was inspected. This building was not declared in the Site Master File, and it is not authorised for the manufacture and/or storage of medicinal products and active substances. In building 1B inspectors found a large quantity of veterinary medicinal products in their final packaging (liquids for internal use and powders for oral solution), intermediates (bulk solution), active substances, starting materials, samples, and other non-medicinal products, such as supplements, as well as production equipment and manufacturing documentation (including delivery notes, invoices, and production records) related to veterinary medicines and active substances. All these materials, documents, and equipment were outside the control of the quality system, poorly identified, and managed in a manner that did not ensure their proper traceability, integrity, or preservation. It was demonstrated that unauthorised manufacturing activities of veterinary medicinal products were being carried out in building 1B without meeting any of the applicable quality requirements and controls and necessary guarantees, in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). It was also detected that distribution activities of active substances were being performed without registration in the applicable API Register. The unauthorised manufacturing activity performed in building 1B had not been detected in previous inspections, although it has been ongoing for several years, as evidenced by the documentation reviewed. Furthermore, based on the labelling of medicinal products and available customer invoices, it is evident that most part of the products are intended for export, for which the company lacks the required authorisations. Action taken/proposed by the NCA: Suspension of the manufacturing authorisation No. 6558 in Full Recall of batches already released Recall of any medicinal product manufactured at LABORATORIOS EURISKO, S.L. is proposed. Prohibition of supply Taking into account the deficiencies identified during the inspection it is concluded that all the products manufactured by LABORATORIOS EURISKO, S.L. are affected by the GMP non-compliance. During the inspection, veterinary medicinal products containing the following actives substances with the pharmaceutical form liquids for internal use and powders for oral solution were found: Norfloxacin, Ciprofloxacin, Enrofloxacin, Kanamycin, Cephalexin, Tylosin, Doxycycline, Neomycin, Gentamicin, Erythromycin, Amoxicillin, Ivermectin, Amprolium, Albendazole, Sulfachloropyridazine, Acetylsalicylic acid, Florfenicol, Ampicillin and Piperazine (non-exhaustive list). In building 3 one pilot batch STI15012025 and the three validation batches STI18122025A, STI18122025B and STI18122025C of Norfloxacin were legally manufactured since 2023. The pilot batch was released on 03/11/2025 destined for Bangladesh and the three validation batches were released on 01/03/2026 destined for Bangladesh, too. Veterinary medicinal products manufactured in the unauthorised facility were intended for distribution and export to Greece, Lebanon, Bangladesh, Siria, Oman and Yemen. The reviewed documentation indicates that exports of medicinal products to these countries have been carried out. Other destinations countries cannot be ruled out. The reviewed documentation during the inspection indicates that the company has distributed and export active substances (Kanamycin, Cephalexin, Tylosin, Amoxicillin and Piperazine) to the following countries: Greece, Lebanon, Oman and Yemen. Other destination countries cannot be ruled out.
