Vision 2006

A Conversation with the American Public

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is holding a

series of public meetings entitled " Vision 2006 -- A

Conversation with the American Public, " in three

cities. The meetings will discuss five specific agency

programs or initiatives: drug safety,

direct-to-consumer advertising, dietary supplements,

the Critical Path initiative, and the advisory

committee

process and how potential conflicts of interest are

managed.

We are holding these meetings to update the public on

current agency programs, engage the public in

discussion, and obtain consumer input on specific

issues. We may use this public input to strengthen our

understanding of the public's expectations and

concerns and to evaluate and modify, if necessary, our

programs and activities.
