## When to Use
1. **Pharmacovigilance / safety signal screening** when you need adverse event counts, common reactions, or serious-event rates for a drug.
2. **Medical device regulatory research** when you need 510(k)/PMA context, device classification, UDI lookups, or device adverse events/recalls.
3. **Recall and enforcement monitoring** when you need to track Class I/II/III recalls across drugs, devices, or foods.
4. **Substance identity resolution** when you need UNII/CAS/name-based lookups and basic substance relationship/structure retrieval.
5. **Veterinary safety analysis** when you need animal adverse events filtered by species/breed and product.
## Key Features
- Unified Python interface (`FDAQuery`) for multiple openFDA domains (drug, device, food, animalandveterinary, other).
- Convenience helpers for common tasks:
- Drug events, labels, recalls, shortages
