FDA Consumer Update

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Centre
for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer
Update on Mobile Phones.
1. Do wireless phones pose a health
hazard?
The available scientific evidence does
not show that any health problems are
associated with using wireless phones.
There is no proof, however, that wireless
phones are absolutely safe. Wireless
phones emit low levels of radiofrequency
energy (RF) in the microwave range while
being used. They also emit very low levels
of RF when in the standby mode. Whereas
high levels of RF can produce health
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to
low level RF that does not produce heating
effects causes no known adverse health
effects. Many studies of low level RF
124
exposures have not found any biological
effects. Some studies have suggested
that some biological effects may occur,
but such findings have not been confirmed
by additional research. In some cases,
other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining
the reasons for inconsistent results.
2. What is the FDA's role concerning the
safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, the FDA does not review
the safety of radiation-emitting consumer
products such as wireless phones before
they can be sold, as it does with new drugs
or medical devices. However, the agency
has authority to take action if wireless
phones are shown to emit radiofrequency
energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to
the user. In such a case, the FDA could
require the manufacturers of wireless
phones to notify users of the health hazard
and to repair, replace, or recall the phones
so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not
justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has
urged the wireless phone industry to take a
number of steps, including the following:
