The FDA is currently accepting public comments on two draft guidance documents. Unlike regulations, guidance documents do not have the force of law; they simply reflect the agency's current thinking on a topic. It is critical to support and encourage the FDA to issue strong guidance documents so that they can be turned into bold regulations. Please take a few moments to learn about the two draft guidance documents and how to submit comments that reflect your knowledge and perspective on the draft guidance.
