Licence and credit

Data provided by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (https://open.fda.gov). openFDA data is public domain under the CC0 1.0 dedication. FDA notes that openFDA results should be treated as unvalidated, and FDA does not endorse this site.

Refresh

A scheduled job checks openFDA's download index every week and downloads the files again only when FDA's export date has changed. Each download is stored with its URL, size, SHA-256 hash and record count, and the build stops if the record count drops by more than 15% or the export date goes backwards.
