What a Form 483 means
A Form FDA 483 is issued at the close of an FDA facility inspection to list conditions an investigator observed that may violate the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act or its implementing regulations. It reflects the investigator's professional judgment at that point in time and is not a final agency determination, an enforcement action, or proof that a violation occurred. Firms are expected to respond in writing, typically within 15 business days, describing the corrective and preventive actions they plan to take. FDA reviews that response, along with any follow-up evidence, before deciding what happens next. Many 483s are resolved through corrective action alone. When FDA judges a firm's response inadequate, or when the underlying conditions are serious enough, the observations documented here can lead to a Warning Letter or further regulatory action. This page presents the observations exactly as recorded on the FDA-issued document; always confirm citation language against the original record before relying on it.

Frequently asked questions
- What is an FDA Form 483?
- A Form FDA 483 lists an FDA investigator’s written observations at the close of a facility inspection, issued under section 704(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

- Does this Form 483 mean Apollo Care LLC violated the law?
- No. A Form 483 documents an investigator's observations only. FDA reviews the firm's written response and any corrective actions taken before deciding whether further action is warranted, and many 483s are closed without additional enforcement once a firm shows adequate correction.
- What happens after a Form 483 is issued?
- Argus HQ has recorded 13 total FDA actions tied to Apollo Care LLC. The firm typically has 15 business days to submit a written response describing planned corrections; unresolved or serious findings can lead to a Warning Letter or other enforcement action.
