Abstract

Every nation is presently addressing the threat posed by the sale of counterfeit medications. It is a growing global issue that has a significant effect on lower middle-income and lower income countries. According to current estimates from the WHO, one in ten of the medications circulating in low- and middle-income nations are either subpar or fake. According to the National Drug Survey 2014–2016, carried out by the National Institute of Biologics, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, counterfeit or substandard drugs make up about 3% of all pharmaceuticals in India. There is an urgent need for increased visibility and traceability within the supply chain due to the growing threat of counterfeit medications entering it and, in particular, making it into customers' hands.
