Database of Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS)

The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) is a database that collects and analyzes reports of side effects and other problems experienced by people using medications or medical devices. Healthcare professionals, patients, and manufacturers can submit reports about adverse events, which help regulators monitor drug safety. By examining this data, the FDA can identify potential risks, ensure public health, and make informed decisions about the safety of products on the market. FAERS is an important tool for ongoing drug safety surveillance and helps protect patients by tracking and responding to safety concerns.
