SALVO GLOBAL ANNOUNCES THE GLOBAL PHARMACEUTICAL FRAUD &
ANTI-COUNTERFEITING CONFERENCE 2009
“Tackling constant fraud challenges, developing an action plan to prevent and eradicate
counterfeiting to elevate the bottom-line and maintain reputation in tumultuous times”
The counterfeiting of pharmaceuticals is becoming now a global problem, where it was once considered to be a third-world problem. Incidents of counterfeit medicines are on the increase. However, reported figures only represent the tip of the iceberg, particularly in developing countries due to the insufficient anti-counterfeiting resources available.
Counterfeit medicines are costing patient's their health and the pharmaceutical industry and governmental organizations millions of dollars per year. Although there is no one preventative strategy, there are several measures that can be employed simultaneously to reduce the risk of fake medicines entering the pharmaceutical supply chain.
Parallel importation and online pharmacies are increasingly becoming the route of choice for counterfeiters to distribute fake medicines to patients on a global scale. Find out why, and what is being done to address these matters.
Currently, 2D-barcodes and radio frequency identification tagging (RFID) are the two most prominent track & trace technologies.
