Can I submit a report on behalf of someone else?

Asked a year ago
Yes, you can submit a report on behalf of someone else. MedWatch accepts reports from healthcare professionals, consumers, and patients' representatives. If you are reporting on behalf of another person, it is essential to provide accurate and detailed information about the event, the patient's medical history, and any relevant medications or treatments they have received. Additionally, include your contact information in case further details are necessary. MedWatch encourages the reporting of adverse events, product quality concerns, and medication errors to ensure the safety and effectiveness of medical products. By submitting a report, you are contributing to the surveillance and monitoring system that helps identify potential risks and take appropriate actions to protect public health.
