FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration Center 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 Home screen. 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 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:
Support needed research into
possible biological effects of RF of the
type emitted by wireless phones;
Design wireless phones in a way that
minimizes any RF exposure to the
user that is not necessary for device
function; and
Cooperate in providing users of
wireless phones with the best possible
information on possible effects of
wireless phone use on human health.
