  • Title: Why the United States still needs improved dietary supplement regulation and oversight.
    Author: Morrow JD.
    Journal: Clin Pharmacol Ther; 2008 Mar; 83(3):391-3. PubMed ID: 18285784.
    Abstract:
    It has been 3 years since the American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics (ASCPT) issued a position statement regarding dietary supplement safety and regulation. I was the Chair of the ASCPT task force charged with issuing the statement. At the time, after careful review of available data, the other members and I concluded that dietary supplement legislation in the United States was lacking and that enhanced oversight was essential to increase the safety of these products for the American consumer.
