Adverse Reactions Questions
What is the source of this data?
+The data displayed on this website comes directly from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), which contains information on adverse event and medication error reports submitted to the FDA. It's important to note that the presence of a report does not establish causation between the drug and the reported event.
Who reports incidents of adverse reaction to the FDA?
+The report may originate from a number of sources, including:
- Consumer or non-health professional
- Physician
- Pharmacist
- Other health professional
- Lawyer
Why do I see a different number of reports for the same drug?
+Depending on which term you use to search, you will see the specific reports related to that term. For example:
- Searching for "Ozempic" will produce approximately 27000 report results.
- Searching for "Semaglutide" will produce approximately 3000 report results.
- Searching for "GLP-1" will produce approximately 40 report results.
To optimize your search, make sure to search for the most commonly-used term, with the correct spelling.
Does this include all possible adverse reactions?
+No. In the United States, reporting adverse events by healthcare professionals and consumers is voluntary. Therefore, while the FDA has the largest database available, it still does not include all possible reactions. You can use this data to stay informed, but all decisions regarding your well-being should be made in consultation with a competent and caring professional who is familiar with your specific needs.
The medication I am searching for does not produce any results. Why?
+While it is possible that the drug is not within the database, it is unlikely. In this case:
- Check that you have the correct and complete spelling.
- If you are searching using the brand name, try searching using the generic name.
- If you are searching using the generic name, try searching using the brand name.
