Thereisnoproof,however,thattabletsareabsolutelysafe.Tabletsemitlowlevels

additionalresearch.Insomecases,otherresearchershavehaddifficultyinreproducing
thosestudies,orindeterminingthereasonsforinconsistentresults.
2. What is the FDAs role concerning the safety of
tablets?
Underthelaw,theFDAdoesnotreviewthesafetyofradiation-emittingconsumer
productssuchastabletsbeforetheycanbesold,asitdoeswithnewdrugsormedical
devices.However,theagencyhasauthoritytotakeactioniftabletsareshowntoemit
RadioFrequency(RF)energyatalevelthatishazardoustotheuser.Insuchacase,the
FDAcouldrequirethemanufacturersoftabletstonotifyusersofthehealthhazardand
torepair,replace,orrecallthetabletssothatthehazardnolongerexists.
AlthoughtheexistingscientificdatadoesnotjustifyFDAregulatoryactions,theFDAhas
urgedthetabletindustrytotakeanumberofsteps,includingthefollowing:
• SupportneededresearchintopossiblebiologicaleffectsofRFofthetypeemitted
bytablets;
• DesigntabletsinawaythatminimizesanyRFexposuretotheuserthatisnot
necessaryfordevicefunction;and
• Cooperateinprovidingusersoftabletswiththebestpossibleinformationon

activities,aswell.
TheFDAsharesregulatoryresponsibilitiesfortabletswiththeFederalCommunications
Commission(FCC).AlltabletsthataresoldintheUnitedStatesmustcomplywithFCC
safetyguidelinesthatlimitRFexposure.TheFCCreliesontheFDAandotherhealth
agenciesforsafetyquestionsabouttablets.
TheFCCalsoregulatesthebasestationsthatthetabletnetworksrelyupon.While
thesebasestationsoperateathigherpowerthandothetabletsthemselves,theRF
exposuresthatpeoplegetfromthesebasestationsaretypicallythousandsoftimes

safetyquestionsdiscussedinthisdocument.
3. What kinds of devices are the subject of this
update?
Theterm“wirelessdevice”refersheretohandheldwirelessdeviceswithbuilt-in
antennas,oftencalled“cell”,“mobile”,or“PCSdevices.Thesetypesofwireless
devicescanexposetheusertomeasurableRadioFrequency(RF)energybecauseof
theshortdistancebetweenthedeviceandtheuser’shead.
TheseRFexposuresarelimitedbyFCCsafetyguidelinesthatweredevelopedwith
theadviceoftheFDAandotherfederalhealthandsafetyagencies.Whenthedevice
islocatedatgreaterdistancesfromtheuser,theexposuretoRFisdrasticallylower
becauseapersonsRFexposuredecreasesrapidlywithincreasingdistancefromthe

4. What are the results of the research done already?
Theresearchdonethusfarhasproducedconflictingresults,andmanystudieshave
sufferedfromflawsintheirresearchmethods.Animalexperimentsinvestigatingthe
effectsofRadioFrequency(RF)energyexposurescharacteristicofwirelessdevices
haveyieldedconflictingresultsthatoftencannotberepeatedinotherlaboratories.A
fewanimalstudies,however,havesuggestedthatlowlevelsofRFcouldacceleratethe
developmentofcancerinlaboratoryanimals.However,manyofthestudiesthatshowed

intheabsenceofRFexposure.OtherstudiesexposedtheanimalstoRFforupto22
hoursperday.Theseconditionsarenotsimilartotheconditionsunderwhichpeople
usewirelessdevices,sowedonotknowwithcertaintywhattheresultsofsuchstudies

oracousticneuroma,tumorsofthebrainorsalivarygland,leukemia,orothercancers.
Noneofthestudiesdemonstratedtheexistenceofanyharmfulhealtheffectsfrom
wirelessdeviceRFexposures.However,noneofthestudiescananswerquestions
aboutlong-termexposures,sincetheaverageperiodofdeviceuseinthesestudieswas
aroundthreeyears.
5. What research is needed to decide whether RF
exposure from tablets poses a health risk?
Acombinationoflaboratorystudiesandepidemiologicalstudiesofpeopleactually
usingtabletswouldprovidesomeofthedatathatareneeded.Lifetimeanimal

populations,buttenormoreyearsfollow-upmaybeneededtoprovideanswersabout
somehealtheffects,suchascancer.Thisisbecausetheintervalbetweenthetimeof

bemany,manyyears.Theinterpretationofepidemiologicalstudiesishamperedby
difficultiesinmeasuringactualRFexposureduringday-to-dayuseoftablets.Many
factorsaffectthismeasurement,suchastheangleatwhichthetabletisheld,orwhich

6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the
possible health effects of tablet RF?
TheFDAisworkingwiththeU.S.NationalToxicologyProgramandwithgroupsof

7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency
energy exposure I can get by using my tablet?
AlltabletssoldintheUnitedStatesmustcomplywithFederalCommunications
Commission(FCC)guidelinesthatlimitRadioFrequency(RF)energyexposures.The
FCCestablishedtheseguidelinesinconsultationwiththeFDAandtheotherfederal
healthandsafetyagencies.TheFCClimitforRFexposurefromwirelessdevicesis
setataSpecificAbsorptionRate(SAR)of1.6wattsperkilogram(1.6W/kg).TheFCC

8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio
Frequency energy coming from tablets?
TheInstituteofElectricalandElectronicEngineers(IEEE)isdevelopingatechnical
standardformeasuringtheRadioFrequency(RF)energyexposurefromtabletsand
otherwirelesshandsetswiththeparticipationandleadershipofFDAscientistsand

measurementisusedtodeterminewhetheratabletcomplieswithsafetyguidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to
Radio Frequency energy from my tablet?
Ifthereisariskfromtheseproducts—andatthispointwedonotknowthatthere
is—itisprobablyverysmall.Butifyouareconcernedaboutavoidingevenpotential
risks,youcantakeafewsimplestepstominimizeyourexposuretoRadioFrequency
(RF)energy.Sincetimeisakeyfactorinhowmuchexposureapersonreceives,

youareconcernedabouttheRFexposurefromtheseproducts,youcanusemeasures
likethosedescribedabovetoreduceyourRFexposurefromtabletuse.
10. What about children using tablets?
Thescientificevidencedoesnotshowadangertousersoftablets,includingchildren
andteenagers.IfyouwanttotakestepstolowerexposuretoRadioFrequency(RF)
energy,themeasuresdescribedabovewouldapplytochildrenandteenagersusing
tablets.Reducingthetimeoftabletuseandincreasingthedistancebetweentheuser
andtheRFsourcewillreduceRFexposure.
Somegroupssponsoredbyothernationalgovernmentshaveadvisedthatchildrenbe
discouragedfromusingwirelessdevicesatall.Forexample,thegovernmentinthe
UnitedKingdomdistributedleafletscontainingsucharecommendationinDecember
2000.Theynotedthatnoevidenceexiststhatusingawirelessdevicecausesbrain
tumorsorotherilleffects.Theirrecommendationtolimitwirelessdeviceusebychildren
wasstrictlyprecautionary;itwasnotbasedonscientificevidencethatanyhealth
hazardexists.
11. What about wireless communications device

withsomeelectronicdevices.Forthisreason,theFDAhelpeddevelopadetailed
