Your Reports Help Us Help You!
The Registry and its reports are needed to identify
problems as early as possible. The NPA can then submit
its findings and seek appropriate assistance from experts
and governmental agencies including the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA). Please click here to report:
- Food and Drug Administration (FDA) MedWatch Program
MedWatch is the Food and Drug Administration's
(FDA) program for reporting serious reactions and problems with medical
products, such as drugs and medical devices. The medical community and
its physicians cannot appreciate the hazards of lindane, lice sprays, and
other pesticidal treatment products until adverse reactions and treatment
failures are identified and reported. If you have noticed an adverse reaction
or a treatment failure, please fill out this form.
-
Adverse Reactions for Lice or Scabies Products
Any incident where the
use of a product is suspected to have resulted in harm to the
patient or the person applying treatment. It is NOT necessary to be certain of a cause/effect relationship
between the adverse event and the use of the product(s) in question. Suspicion
of an association is sufficient.
-
Treatment Failures for Lice or Scabies Products
Any report regarding the quality, performance, or safety of any product.
Product problems include, but are not limited to, such concerns as:
questionable effectiveness, therapeutic
failures, and confusion (caused by name, labeling, instructions, design or packaging)
