About FDA
For more than 100 years, the FDA has been working to carry out our mission of promoting and protecting public health, and that means your health.
What Does FDA Do?
Each day in America, you can trust the foods you eat and the medicines you take, thanks to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
More than 18,000 FDA employees work in all 50 states and internationally to ensure the safety and effectiveness of human and veterinary medicines, biologics, and medical devices. We also regulate the safety of food, cosmetics, devices that emit radiation, and tobacco products.
