An experiment explored using an AI agent to reconcile drug safety data from FDA labels with real-world adverse event reports. The AI, connected to FDA data sources via Apify MCP, was tasked with comparing official warnings against patient and clinician-submitted reports for the drug metformin. The agent successfully identified recurring adverse reactions in FAERS reports, noting that metformin was often listed as a concomitant medication rather than the primary suspect drug, highlighting a potential area for human review. AI
