lass="xn-location">Allston plant into compliance within given dates. If Genzyme fails to complete any step specified in the work plan, the company will have to pay a substantial fine. In addition, the consent decree provides a deadline for Genzyme to transfer its operations for filling drug vials from its Allston facility to other manufacturing sites or else it will have to disgorge further profits from the sales of drugs filled at Allston after that specific date.

FDA is working with Genzyme during the company's remediation to ensure availability of the company's medically necessary drugs.
