FDA Expedite Release of Recalls

As part of an effort to increase transparency, empower consumers, and enhance public health, the FDA is working to alert the public sooner whenever a product has been recalled. Historically, only recalls that have already been classified into one of three categories based on the severity of the hazard have been listed in the report. However, recall classifications can sometimes take weeks – or even months when FDA needs to conduct a complex evaluation. FDA has decided that the public would benefit by having recall information about FDA-regulated products as soon as possible, even though further evaluation remains to be done. Moving forward, FDA will include “not-yet-classified” recalls in the weekly Enforcement Report, even while classification work is still ongoing. @ https://blogs.fda.gov/fdavoice/index.php/2018/01/fda-to-expedite-release-of-recall-information/
