FDA record score

4 of 100. A count of this site's adverse public FDA records, weighted by how recent each one is. A higher number means more, or more recent, records. Each record below adds the points shown.

Counted on Nov 14, 2026, method version 1. It counts records and does not judge the site: a low number does not establish that a site is safe, and sites that FDA inspects more often can collect more points. How this is counted.
