openFDA
Let AI connect your sources for you
Skip the manual setup — run this in your project and the wizard auto-detects your databases and APIs and connects them to PostHog.
Connect openFDA to PostHog to sync your data into the PostHog data warehouse for analysis and modeling.
Pull U.S. FDA drug, device, and food data — adverse event reports, recalls, drug labeling, 510(k) clearances, and the NDC directory — into the PostHog Data warehouse.
An API key is optional but recommended. Without one, openFDA limits you to 1,000 requests/day per IP; with one, 120,000 requests/day. Get a free key from the openFDA API basics page.
