Speak Up! Be Counted!
Did you know that as a patient, you can file a report with the FDA
if you have had an adverse event (side effect) from a drug or medical device? This is how the FDA finds out about problems in the real world. This how you can do your part.
Have you experienced a side effect from a prescription?
Have you had any difficulties due to a medical device?
PLEASE file a report.
