Reaction is mixed to petition asking FDA to recall sunscreens
Abstract:
An industry representative said that sunscreens are safe. Academic experts said there is not enough evidence for harmful effects to justify a recall of sunscreens, but some called for labeling of the products and for more public access to information about safety studies done by industry. The FDA, for its part, said it will respond to the petition, but declined to comment any further.
