INTRODUCTION • • • • The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or USFDA) is an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, one of the United States federal executive departments. The FDA is responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the regulation and supervision of food safety, tobacco products, dietary supplements, prescription and over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs (medications), vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, blood transfusions, medical devices, electromagnetic radiation emitting devices (ERED), veterinary products, and cosmetics. The FDA also enforces other laws, notably Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act and associated regulations, many of which are not directly related to food or drugs. These include sanitation requirements on interstate travel and control of disease on products ranging from certain household pets to sperm donation for assisted reproduction. 4
HISTORY OF FDA In June 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt signed into law the Food and Drug Act, also known as the "Wiley Act" after its chief advocate. The act applied penalties to the interstate marketing of "adulterated" drugs, in which the "standard of strength, quality, or purity" of the active ingredient was not either stated clearly on the label or listed in the United States Pharmacopoeia or the National Formulary . The act also banned "misbranding" of food and drugs. The responsibility for examining food and drugs for such "adulteration" or "misbranding" was given to Wiley's USDA Bureau of Chemistry. Wiley used these new regulatory powers to pursue an aggressive campaign against the manufacturers of foods with chemical additives, but the Chemistry Bureau's authority was soon checked by judicial decisions, as well as by the creation of the Board of Food and Drug Inspection and the Referee Board of Consulting Scientific Experts as separate organizations within the USDA in 1907 and 1908 respectively. 5
A 1911 Supreme Court decision ruled that the 1906 act did not apply to false claims of therapeutic efficacy in response to which a 1912 amendment added "false and fraudulent" claims of "curative or therapeutic effect" to the Act's definition of "misbranded.“ However, these powers continued to be narrowly defined by the courts, which set high standards for proof of fraudulent intent. In 1927, the Bureau of Chemistry's regulatory powers were reorganized under a new USDA body, the Food, Drug, and Insecticide organization. This name was shortened to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) three years later. 6
RESPONSIBILITY OF FDA Protecting the public health by assuring that foods are safe, wholesome, sanitary and properly labeled; human and veterinary drugs, and vaccines and other biological products and medical devices intended for human use are safe and effective. Protecting the public from electronic product radiation. Assuring cosmetics and dietary supplements are safe and properly labeled Regulating tobacco products. Helping the public get the accurate science-based information they need to use medicines, devices, and foods to improve their health. FDA’s responsibilities extend to the 50 United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and other U.S. territories and possessions. 7
Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D. Commissioner Of Food and Drugs The FDA is led by the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate.

FDA ADVISORY COMMITTEE Advisory committees provide FDA with independent advice from outside experts on issues related to human and veterinary drugs, vaccines and other biological products, medical devices, and food. In general, advisory committees include a chair, several members, plus a consumer, industry, and sometimes a patient representative. Additional experts with special knowledge may be added for individual committee meetings as needed. Although the committees provide advice to the agency, FDA makes the final decisions. 13
H o w D O E S A N I N D I V I D UA L B E C O M E A MEMBER OF AN FDA ADVISORY COMMITTEE? Professio n al societies; industry, consumer, and patient advocacy groups; or other interested people may nominate scientific members and consumer, industry, and patient representatives. In addition, individuals who want to serve on a committee may nominate themselves. FDA requests that candidates provide detailed information regarding financial holdings, employment, research grants and contracts, and other potential conflicts of interest that may rule out membership. The Food and Drug Administration, to assist in its mission to protect and promote the public health, uses 49 committees and panels to obtain independent expert advice on scientific, technical, and policy matters. 14
SCOPE AND FUNDING The FDA regulates more than $1 trillion worth of consumer goods, about 25% of consumer expenditures in the United States. This includes $466 billion in food sales, $275 billion in drugs, $60 billion in cosmetics and $18 billion in vitamin supplements. Much of the expenditures is for goods imported into the United States; the FDA is responsible for monitoring a third of all imports. Sagar Kishor Savale 15 04/28/16

RECENT UPDATE …… The FDA currently has regulatory oversight over a large array of products that affect the health and life of American citizens. As a result, the FDA's powers and decisions are carefully monitored by several governmental and non- governmental organizations. In 2006 Institute of Medicine report on pharmaceutical regulation in the U.S. found major deficiencies in the current FDA system for ensuring the safety of drugs on the American market. Overall, the authors called for an increase in the regulatory powers, funding, and independence of the FDA. Nine FDA scientists appealed to then president-elect Barack Obama over pressures from management, experienced during the George W. Bush presidency, to manipulate data, including in relation to the review process for med Sa i g c a a r l K d ish e o v r i S c a e va s l . e
FDA Food Safety Modernization Act The FDA Food Safety Modernization Act is a federal statute signed into law by President Barack Obama on January 4, 2011. The law authorizes the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to increase inspections of many domestic food facilities, enhance detection of food borne illness outbreaks, and order recalls of tainted food products. The law requires most food companies to write and implement new safety protocols to mitigate potential hazards. 25
President Barack Obama signs the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act into law Also, imported food products face increased scrutiny under the law, including denial of entry into the United States under certain circumstances. It is the most significant update of American food safety laws since the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act in 1938. 26
