MeCure Industries Plc has recently introduced a Track-and-trace solution to enhance product safety and improve patient safety standards in Nigeria.
Gatekeepers News reports that this move is aimed at dealing with the increasing threat of fake and counterfeit drugs in the Nigerian pharmaceutical industry while ensuring that medicines remain accessible to those who need them.
The Track-and-trace solution is an essential tool that helps prevent the infiltration of counterfeit drugs into the healthcare supply chain. Such infiltration poses significant patient risks, including incorrect ingredients, improper dosages, and harmful substances that can have severe health consequences.
By deploying this innovative solution, MeCure Industries Plc is taking a critical step towards improving the quality and safety of healthcare in Nigeria.
Track & Trace is a solution that allows pharmaceutical companies to monitor their products from manufacturing to the end-user. It provides complete transparency, making counterfeit MeCure Track & Trace-enabled brands impossible. The solution also deters the falsification of medicines and safeguards consumers. It allows consumers to authenticate each product with just a click on any smartphone, providing a practical solution to the growing problem of counterfeit drugs.
This initiative reinforces the pharmaceutical supply chain while promoting collaboration among various stakeholders. Standardized and traceable data systems are shared between manufacturers, distributors, and regulatory bodies.
