Product Recalls gives you instant access to official US government recall and safety databases. Search food contamination alerts, drug withdrawals, and consumer product hazards — or run a safety check on any brand or product name across all sources at once.
All data comes directly from the FDA and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Whether you're checking a product before buying, monitoring your industry for compliance, or researching a specific brand's safety record, this tool queries the same databases that regulators publish.
What you can do
- search_food_recalls — find FDA food recalls by product, brand, or contaminant with severity and status filters
- search_drug_recalls — look up pharmaceutical recalls by drug name or manufacturer
- search_product_recalls — search CPSC consumer product recalls for toys, electronics, appliances, and more
- recent_recalls — get the latest recalls across all categories without needing a search term
- check_product_safety — run a cross-database safety check on any product or brand simultaneously
Who it's for
Parents checking toy and baby gear safety, consumers verifying a product before purchase, compliance professionals monitoring industry recalls, journalists and researchers tracking safety patterns, and anyone who wants to know if something they own or buy has been flagged.
How to use it
- To check if a specific brand or product is safe, use check_product_safety — it searches food, drug, and product databases at once and flags any active recalls.
- To search a specific category, use search_food_recalls, search_drug_recalls, or search_product_recalls with a product name or keyword.
- To see what's been recalled recently without a specific query, call recent_recalls with your preferred category.
