FDA Launches Postmarket Chemical Review Program to Ensure Food Safety

  • On May 19, 2025, the federal agency responsible for regulating food and drugs introduced a new program to enhance the review of chemicals in food products, aiming to increase safety and transparency across the country.
  • This program replaces the previous reactive system that depended on citizen petitions and emerging scientific evidence to trigger safety reviews of food chemicals.
  • The FDA's framework involves evidence-based prioritization, systematic postmarket reviews, and transparency initiatives targeting chemicals like butylated hydroxyanisole, phthalates, and titanium dioxide.
  • FDA Commissioner Martin A. Makary stated, "We are prioritizing our resources" and creating a program that "consumers can trust and rely on" to address chronic disease risks.
  • This proactive, science-driven approach aims to protect public health, enhance consumer choice, and could redefine food chemical safety standards in the United States.
