In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for monitoring post-marketing studies.

Famous quotes containing the word bodies:
“Remember all those renowned generations,
They left their bodies to fatten the wolves,
They left their homesteads to fatten the foxes,
Fled to far countries, or sheltered themselves
In cavern, crevice or hole,
Defending Ireland’s soul.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
