Food and Drug Consumer Complaint or Problem

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) investigates consumer complaints. Call the metro area consumer complaint number with complaints on FDA-regulated products (i.e., foods, drugs, cosmetics, medical devices, radiation emitting products, and vaccines).



To report adverse reactions or other problems with FDA-regulated products, contact the FDA district office consumer complaint coordinator for your geographic area. If you require the use of a Relay Service, please call the Federal Relay Services (1-800-877-8339). This is a toll free relay service to call Federal agencies from TTY devices.



Consumer Complaint Coordinator for the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia can be reached at 410-779-5713.
