health effects. Many studies of low
level RF 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 Radio Frequency (RF)
energy 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.
