I am a little confused, Marsha states that > Any such product on the
market whether it is food or a medical device that

I went to the MedWatch page and found the following information ,
according the info on the MEdWatch page, the things MArsha states are
not serious.....

Can someone , perhaps MArsha, help clear this up for me?

Thanks

Cindy


MedWatch is the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) program for health
professionals to report serious reactions and
problems with medical products such as drugs and medical devices.

A reaction is considered serious if the product caused

     death,
     a life threatening situation,
     admission to a hospital or a longer than expected hospital stay,
     a permanent disability,
     a birth defect, or
     the need for medical or surgical care to prevent permanent damage
