All data is from the FDA's openFDA (CC0 public domain). Informational only — not medical advice and not for clinical or regulatory decisions. Adverse-event reports are spontaneous, unverified, and do not establish causation; recall records are point-in-time snapshots. Pythia is independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by the FDA.
