Your so called Food & Drug Branch of Health services Dept belongs to FDA.

FYI:

What FDA Regulates FDA is the federal agency responsible for ensuring that foods are safe, wholesome and sanitary; human and veterinary drugs, biological products, and medical devices are safe and effective; cosmetics are safe; and electronic products that emit radiation are safe. FDA also ensures that these products are honestly, accurately and informatively represented to the public. Some of the agency\'s specific responsibilities include:
