Question

when the fda identifies a medication that creates a risk of illness injury or gross deception which of the following options can the fda use for product removal?
add the medication to the controlled substance schedule.
seek the legal authority to stop distribution.
develop commercials for the public to build awareness.
request that the manufacturer submit a new medication application.

Explanation:

The FDA's power to remove a product includes seeking legal authority to halt its distribution when it poses risks like illness, injury or gross deception. Adding to controlled - substance schedule is for substances with abuse potential, commercials build awareness but don't remove product, and asking for a new application doesn't remove the current product.

Answer:

B. Seek the legal authority to stop distribution.
