Counterfeiting in the pharmaceutical industry
has reached epidemic proportions. There have been numerous methods
developed in an attempt to curtail the problem, but these attempts
have met with little success. Holograms, bar-coding, use of special
packaging material and even the use of embedded micro chips on
high value items have done little to prevent this widespread problem.
While we make every possible effort to secure the
authenticity of our products through product verification, due to
the prevalence of counterfeit pharmaceutical products, customers
should be wary of:
• Labels that appear to have been altered.
• Misspelled or altered product content.
• Poor quality material or packaging.
• Missing codes, trademarks or other information.
