FDA Citizen Petition

In July 2023, Pill Clarity (formerly VeganMed) filed a Citizen Petition with the FDA to improve transparency in medication labeling. The FDA has yet to respond, delaying progress and putting patients with dietary restrictions at risk. We remain committed to advocating for change and protecting patient safety. Read more on USA Today.

Representative Matthew Overcast - District 155, Missouri

"My 11-year-old daughter, Lyla, was diagnosed with alpha-gal syndrome after a challenging journey involving unclear symptoms, misdiagnoses, and significant uncertainty. Organizations like Pill Clarity are effectively addressing this need by providing centralized, verified data on mammalian-derived and other allergenic ingredients in medications, substantially easing the burden on affected families and healthcare providers. This work needs to be supported!"
