European Verification System for Pharmaceuticals
All members of the pharmaceutical supply chain are required to implement the EU’s Falsified Medicines Directive from February 9, 2019 to ensure secure labeling of pharmaceutical products - also for pharma wholesaler.
Each medication must be supplied with a unique identification in the form of a ‘data matrix code’ printed on the packaging. In addition, packaging must include ‘tamper evidence’ to verify that medication has not been tampered with. The data for these medications must be available for all members of the pharmaceutical supply chain, including manufacturers, licensed pharmaceutical wholesalers, and pharmacies, to scan, process, and send to the National Medicines Verification System of each individual country. That means that all institutions and companies must adjust their processes accordingly. The time and costs involved in the transition should not be underestimated, least of all due to the high safety standards involved in the processes, not to mention the tight implementation deadline. While most manufacturers and pharmacies have already adapted to the requirements of the Falsified Medicines Directive, there is still significant uncertainty among pharmaceutical wholesalers regarding compliance with the EU FMD.
