Recently, I discovered that a batch of drugs produced by my company had some serious quality issues. As a responsible employee, I want to report this to the relevant authorities, but I'm afraid that it might compromise my job. Is there any way for me to do this without putting myself in a difficult situation?

Yes, you can report the issue anonymously by making a formal complaint to the relevant authorities. You can remain anonymous and they will take action accordingly. In most jurisdictions, whistleblower protections are in place that will keep you safe from any kind of reprisal or repercussions.

Yes, there are ways to report the issue without compromising your job. You can contact the relevant authorities anonymously, leave a note or file describing the issue in detail and deliver it to a trusted person in the company, or discuss your concerns with other colleagues who might be able to help. 
Moreover, most companies have ombudspersons whom employees can approach in cases of misconduct. You should try to reach out to them and describe your issue in detail. Chances are that they will act promptly and discreetly while investigating your complaint.
Finally, you can also seek advice from an employment lawyer who can advise you on how to proceed cautiously but effectively. Good luck!
