There is shock and awe in Washington, and it is not in the Pentagon. It is the reaction to the Food & Drug Administration's announcement of a comprehensive commitment to the safety of drugs and other medical products.

FDA ANNOUNCES PLAN TO IMPROVE DRUG SAFETY

The FDA has outlined a comprehensive commitment to the safety of drugs and other medical products. The FDA report, which also responds to recommendations made by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), details a series of initial steps that aim to ensure that FDA's safety programs are the best possible.

The FDA plans to take action in three key areas:

*Strengthening the science that supports the FDA's drug safety system from premarket testing through postmarket surveillance;

*Improving communication and information flow; and

*Reorganizing operations to improve the review, analysis and consultation related to safety.

Wow! These people mean business - I mean, safety.
