"The United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has exempted some more products manufactured at the company's Unit-II at Visakhapatnam from the import alert issued under clauses 66-40 and 99-32 of the FDA regulations," Divis Laboratories said in a filing to BSE on Saturday. The regulator had earlier exempted 10 products, including Levetiracetam, Gabapentin, Lamotrigine, Capecitabine, Naproxen sodium and BOC core succinate, from the import alert. Earlier on March 22, Divis Lab had said the regulator had issued import alert for products made at one of its units at Visakhapatnam citing violation of manufacturing norms and refusal of inspection.
