MedWatch

MedWatch is a program run by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that monitors the safety of medical products, including drugs and devices. It allows healthcare professionals and the public to report adverse effects, safety concerns, or product problems. This monitoring helps the FDA identify potential risks and take necessary actions, such as issuing safety warnings or recalls. By collecting this information, MedWatch aims to ensure that medical products are safe and effective for consumers, ultimately protecting public health.
