This week we pay attention to “Fight the fakes week”, which this year has the theme “Identifying Critical Enablers in the Prevention, Detection, and Response to Substandard and Falsified Medicines. “
Without an e-verification system, there is a great risk that falsifed medicines will become a growing problem, both on the European and Swedish markets. The e-verification system for pharmaceuticals in Sweden ensures that the actors in the pharmaceutical market comply with the EU directive on falsified pharmaceuticals. The system makes it possible to check the authenticity of medicines at the time of sale and throughout the supply chain.
