pDevice Enforcement Overview1https://open.fda.gov/apis/device/enforcement/The openFDA device enforcement reports API returns data from the FDA Recall Enterprise System (RES), a database that contains information on recall event information submitted to FDA. Currently, this data covers publicly releasable records from 2004-present. The data is updated weekly.
pDevice Enforcement Overview2https://open.fda.gov/apis/device/enforcement/The procedures followed to input recall information into RES when FDA learns of a recall event are outlined in Chapter 7 of FDA’s Regulatory Procedure Manual. The Regulatory Procedures Manual is a reference manual for FDA personnel. It provides FDA personnel with information on internal procedures to be used in processing domestic and import regulatory and enforcement matters.

pAdditional Information About Medical Device Recall Enforcement Reports7https://open.fda.gov/apis/device/enforcement/Recalls are an appropriate alternative method for removing or correcting marketed consumer products, their labeling, and/or promotional literature that violate the laws administered by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Recalls afford equal consumer protection but generally are more efficient and timely than formal administrative or civil actions, especially when the product has been widely distributed.
pAdditional Information About Medical Device Recall Enforcement Reports8https://open.fda.gov/apis/device/enforcement/Manufacturers and/or distributors may initiate a recall at any time to fulfill their responsibility to protect the public health from products that present a risk of injury or gross deception, or are otherwise defective. Firms may also initiate a recall following notification of a problem by FDA or a state agency, in response to a formal request by FDA, or as ordered by FDA.

Use a focused documentation extract when planning or maintaining an integration with the device-enforcement API. The product turns the selected reference sections into structured text that can be reviewed or indexed with its source context.

What this download contains

The records describe documentation, not recalled devices. That distinction matters when choosing between a reference pack and a data export: this product helps you understand a service, while the separate enforcement dataset provides captured source records.

Working with this edition

Check the section inventory and sample, then add the text to your internal documentation workflow. Refer to the current official API documentation when implementing a live request or interpreting an updated response contract.

Product questions

Are device recall rows included?

No. This is the documentation product; the recall-record export is a separate offer.

Does it include an API key?

No. It is reference material, not an access credential or hosted API subscription.
