    PrintTo obtain the most current information on U.S. recalls of FDA-regulated products, FDA regulators are encouraged to monitor FDA’s web page at https://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/default.htm. This page also contains information that FDA gathers from company press releases and other public notices about certain recalls of FDA-regulated products.

Regulators can also visit the following links for more safety information by specific product area:

	Medical Devices: For a more complete listing of Medical Device Recalls, see FDA’s Medical Device Recalls.FDA also provides contact information where regulators may report FDA-regulated recalled products that have been exported from their country to the USA. The foreign authority may report to the Recall Operations Branch in the FDA’s Office of Policy, Compliance, and Enforcement via email at ORARECALLOE@fda.hhs.gov. This contact information can also be shared with the firms located in your country.
