Quoted verbatim from the FDA warning letter dated April 14, 2026

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspected your drug manufacturing facility, New Life Pharma LLC, 3012113519, at 265 Livingston Street, Northvale, from February 3 to February 13, 2026. Based on the inspection and a review of the evidence collected, we identified serious violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act).

Your “Semaglutide Sterile Multi-Dose Vial” and “Tirzepatide Sterile Multi-Dose Vial” products are unapproved new drugs under section 505(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. 355(a). These products are misbranded drugs under section 502(o) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 352(o) because you did not properly register you firm or list your drugs with FDA.

In addition, your methods, facilities, or controls for manufacturing, processing, packing, or holding do not conform to CGMP, your drug products are adulterated within the meaning of section 501(a)(2)(B) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B).

Finally, during the inspection our FDA investigators documented that your firm delayed, denied, limited, and/or refused to permit an FDA inspection. Under section 501(j) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) 21 U.S.C. 351(j), your drugs are adulterated in that they have been manufactured, processed, packed, or held in an establishment where the owner or operator has delayed, denied, limited, and/or refused to permit inspection.

Introducing or delivering these drugs for introduction into interstate commerce violates sections 301(a), 301(d), 301(p), and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(a), 331(d), 331(p), and 355(a).

Your “Semaglutide Sterile Multi-Dose Vial” and “Tirzepatide Sterile Multi-Dose Vial” are “drugs” under section 201(g)(1) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(g)(1), because they are intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease and/or intended to affect the structure or any function of the body. Multiple factors demonstrate that these products are intended for use as drugs.

For example, your registration as a drug manufacturer and listing of a semaglutide injectable drug in FDA’s drug registration and listing system provides evidence of your intent for these products to be used as drugs. (see 21 CFR 207.77(c)).

Additional evidence that your products are intended to be used as drugs (see 21 CFR 201.128) includes their composition, consisting of semaglutide or tirzepatide active pharmaceutical ingredients, which are well-known as the active ingredients in drugs approved for indications related to weight loss and management of type 2 diabetes; their design as lyophilized powder in sterile glass multi-dose vials with rubber stoppers requiring reconstitution and parenteral injection; and the circumstances of their distribution, including shipment to weight loss clinics (“med spas”) and cosmetic surgery medical practices. In at least some instances, you shipped the drug with bacteriostatic water purchased online, providing the means to prepare an injectable drug for human administration. In addition, your labels for your products include a National Drug Code (NDC), as well as the term “Rx-only,” and “Sterile Multi-Dose Vial; Refrigerate after reconstitution,” indicating use as a prescription drug.

What FDA warning letters mean

A warning letter is FDA's principal means of telling a company that the agency considers something it's doing — a marketing claim, a manufacturing practice, a labeling choice — to violate the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Companies typically have 15 working days to respond.

A warning letter is not a recall, a criminal charge, or a finding that the company has broken the law. It is the start of a regulatory conversation. FDA may issue a close-out letter once it is satisfied that the company has corrected the cited issues.

For compounded GLP-1 telehealth providers, the most common citations involve unapproved new drug claims, misbranding, and the use of bulk drug substances not on FDA's approved list under FDCA sections 503A and 503B.

Editorial Disclaimer

FDA warning letters are public regulatory communications and do not, on their own, indicate that a company has done anything illegal. Companies often respond to warning letters with corrective action, and many letters are eventually closed out. The full text of this letter is available on fda.gov via the link above.
