WHAT KINDS OF PRODUCTS DOES
FDA REGULATE?
The FDA has jurisdiction over foods, drugs, cosmetics, and
medical devices. Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) contains the regulations promulgated by the FDA
within its authority over foods, drugs, cosmetics, and medical
devices. "Drugs," as construed in 21CFR, include materials
listed in the currently official edition of the United States
Pharmacopeia. Certain personal care products may become
"drugs" by virtue of the advertising claims made for them, such
as cosmetics or other personal care products that promise to cure
or claim to have other disease treating or preventing properties.
