H.R. 3377—Dietary Supplement Access and Awareness

On October 28, 2003, Representative Susan A. Davis (D-CA) introduced H.R. 3377, the Dietary and Supplement Access and Awareness Act. H.R. 3377 would amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act with respect to dietary supplements by requiring dietary supplement manufacturers to provide FDA with a list of their products and reports of all serious adverse events. These actions would alert FDA to problematic dietary supplements and would give FDA access to information it needs in order to take action more swiftly. Upon introduction, H.R. 3377 was referred to House Committee on Energy and Commerce and subsequently referred to the Subcommittee on Health on December 4.
