FDA CONSUMER UPDATE
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones:
1. What is the FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, the 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 Radio
Frequency (RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, the 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 does not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the wireless phone industry to take a
number of steps, including the following:
1. Support current and future research regarding possible biological effects of the type of RF emitted by wireless phones;
2. Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device function; and
3. Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with complete and accurate information regarding possible effects of wireless
phone use on human health and safety.
