reactions. Therefore, it is important to submit reports, even if there is uncertainty about the
li li li li li li li li li li li li li li li


cause–effect relationship. The FDA protects the identity of those who voluntarily report
li li li li li li li li li li li li

as itching, rashes, and hives. Anaphylactic shock is a serious allergic reaction that requires
li li li li li li li li li li li li li li

primary health care professionals to report adverse effects of drugs to the FDA using MedWatch.
li li li li li li li li li li li li li li li

li li li li li li li li li li li li li li li li li


on human or animal cells is done in the pre-FDA phase. In Phase 2 of clinical testing, the
