White Paper

Leveraging RFID & 2D Barcodes: e-Pedigree and Beyond

 

With the increase in drug counterfeiting, pharmaceutical industry and regulatory agencies are adopting multiple anti-counterfeit strategies such as new regulations, secured drug supply chains and heightened awareness among stakeholders. Secured supply chains require the ability to trace, validate and verify the authenticity of the drug at any stage of the supply chain (e-Pedigree regulation).

In this white paper, we highlight the drug counterfeit challenges and discuss the approaches to handle “serialization” through the tracking and tracing of drugs in supply chains. We provide an approach to deploy mass serialization using EPC and carrier technologies like 2D-barcodes and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), and the option to implement a solution that meets the e-Pedigree requirement and leverages industry standards such as EPCIS and DPMS.
