studies have suggested that some biological effects may occur,
but such findings have not been confirmed by additional
research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for
inconsistent results.
17. What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-
emitting consumer products such as wireless phones before
they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices.
However, the agency has authority to take action if wireless
phones are shown to emit radiofrequency energy (RF) at a level
that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require
the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify users of the
health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones so that
the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA
regulatory actions, FDA has urged the wireless phone industry
to take a number of steps, including the following:
䊳 Support needed research into possible biological effects of
RF of the type emitted by wireless phones;
䊳 Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF
exposure to the user that is not necessary for device
function; and
䊳 Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the
best possible information on possible effects of wireless
phone use on human health
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal
agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of RF
safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The
following agencies belong to this working group:
䊳 National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
䊳 Environmental Protection Agency
䊳 Federal Communications Commission
䊳 Occupational Safety and Health Administration
䊳 National Telecommunications and Information
Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some
interagency working group activities, as well.
