Drug counterfeiting is a major public health problem, especially in emerging countries:
One in ten medicines in the world
is counterfeit
70% Emerging countries are currently the most at risk: in Africa, 70% of all medicines are counterfeit.
50% of medicines sold on line
are counterfeit.
To tackle the problem of counterfeit medicines, a number of countries and regions require medicines to be serialized using a visible code on all boxes of medicines.
However, while serialization is a step toward combating fraud, it does not guarantee the patient that the medicines they need to take are not counterfeit. Serialization codes cannot always be read by patients. They can be copied.
Seal labels integrate security features designed to ensure the integrity and authenticity of the medicines, including:
Arjo Solutions has developed a mobile solution for detecting counterfeit products, AdfirmiaTM , based on a material biometrics technology, which is as simple to use as a barcode scanner, as secure as a molecular taggant and does not require anything to be added to the product.
Simply using a smartphone, experts and patients alike can authenticate the medicine without needing an expert assessment and interpretation.
Our solution also enables pharmaceutical labs to deploy a strategy for direct interaction with patients when authenticating their medicines.
