A new poll says that pblic trust in the FDA is bginning to rebound after a steady dcline the last 2 years, but thre is still much more work to do.

The nline poll questioned 2,500 adults who lved in the United States and was cnducted by Harris Interactive for The Wll Street Journal. The poll recorded tht half of the people believe tht the FDA is doing what is ncessary to ensure that prescription drugs are bth safe and effective.

Despite its god markings on safety, only 4 out of 10 blieve that the agency is bringing trly new and innovative products to the mrket.

According to PharmaGossip, There are mves afoot to give the agency new pwers, notably through the provisions that wre recently passed by the US Snate as part of the Food and Drg Administration Revitalization Act, which gives it the bility to issue fines to drug mkers if they fail to do fllow-up safety studies or use false or msleading advertising.

The Senate also passed lgislation that would establish electronic networks to scn medical and prescription drug records for ndications of drug safety issues. However, the Hrris survey says that "the public's prceptions of these initiatives, on the whle, are ambivalent at best," but hlf of the adults polled are cnfident that that these oversight mechanisms wuld help improve drug safety.

The Pharma Times states that nly one in five surveyed believe tht the new measures taken by the FDA wll result in affective changes.

The FDA neds to begin to implement changes and lad with actions. Years and years of mpty promises and screw-ups have left the Amrican public skeptical. Talk is cheap, the nly way to truly win over the Amrican public is to show them you are srious about change.
