- ⚖️ Legal / insurance research — adverse event reports by drug or device

Input
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
dataset | select | Drug/Food/Device recalls, drug or device adverse events, or drug labels. |
searchQuery | string | openFDA expression, e.g. recalling_firm:Pfizer, classification:Class+I. |
dateFrom / dateTo | string | YYYY-MM-DD range on the dataset's report date. |
maxRecords | integer | Max records to scrape. |
apiKey | string | Optional free key — raises the limit from 240 to 120,000 requests/day. |
Example — recent Class I drug recalls
{ "dataset": "drug-enforcement", "searchQuery": "classification:\"Class I\"", "dateFrom": "2025-01-01", "maxRecords": 500 }
Output (recalls)
{"dataset": "drug-enforcement","recallNumber": "D-0123-2026","classification": "Class II","status": "Ongoing","productDescription": "Sterile injectable ...","reasonForRecall": "Lack of Assurance of Sterility","recallingFirm": "ProRx LLC","state": "MS","country": "United States","recallInitiationDate": "2025-10-02","reportDate": "2025-11-05"}
Adverse-event and label datasets return their own tailored fields (reactions, seriousness, patient age/sex; or indications, warnings, dosage).
Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or pull live via the Apify API.
Notes
- Uses the official openFDA API — authoritative FDA data, no key needed to start.
- Add a free API key if you plan high-volume runs (the anonymous limit is 240 requests/day).
- openFDA caps deep paging at ~26,000 records per query; narrow your date range for larger pulls.
