The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recently issued alerts or other safety information about a number of products, including
• an antibiotic that can cause a potentially fatal irregular heart rhythm,
• a compounded medication that has caused serious eye infections, and
• a dietary supplement found to have an active ingredient used in prescription medicines to treat erectile dysfunction.
These and other alerts were prompted by reports FDA received from health care professionals and the public through the agency’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting Program.
