The impact of efforts by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to notify
the general public and health care providers about unanticipated risks
from approved medications has been "varied and unpredictable," according
to a systematic review of published studies about FDA warnings and alerts
over the last 20 years.
.
Although some communication efforts had a strong and immediate effect,
many had little or no impact on drug use or health behaviors and several
had unintended consequences, researchers report in the journal Medical
Care.
.
"Communicating risk to large groups of people is a complex science," said
study director G. Caleb Alexander, MD, associate professor of medicine at
the University of Chicago. "But success or failure at this can have
significant consequences. As such efforts become more and more common -
with the FDA's mandate to establish a more active surveillance system - we
will need a better understanding of how to make them work and where they
can go wrong. And we need more and better studies of the successes and
failures of this process."
