FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) Standards

The FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) sets and enforces standards to ensure that foods, medicines, vaccines, medical devices, cosmetics, and other products are safe, effective, and properly labeled. They review scientific data before products reach the market and monitor ongoing safety once products are in use. The FDA’s role is to protect public health by reducing risks and assuring quality, providing guidelines that manufacturers must follow and taking action if products are unsafe or misleading. Their standards help ensure that consumers receive trustworthy, safe products for everyday use.
