FDA Role in protecting the patient

Research the current roles of the FDA and what role they play in consumer safety when it comes to medication. The FDA uses risk event mitigation strategies (REMS), requires medguides or black box warnings with certain medications and has established MedWatch. Using APA format, write a 1-2 page paper explaining how the FDA uses the strategies listed above to protect the public. Remember to cite your sources appropriately.
