Who can submit a report to MedWatch?
Anyone can submit a report to MedWatch, including healthcare professionals, patients, caregivers, and consumers. MedWatch encourages the reporting of adverse events, side effects, medication errors, and product quality problems related to FDA-regulated drugs, medical devices, biologics, dietary supplements, and cosmetics. Healthcare professionals play a vital role in reporting since they can provide critical clinical expertise and detailed information. However, all individuals can contribute valuable insights, as they may experience unique reactions or identify problems not noticed by others. It is crucial to report any suspicion or evidence of a potential safety issue to MedWatch, as this helps the FDA in their ongoing efforts to monitor and ensure the safety and effectiveness of these products for the public health.
