Under the U.S. Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), pharmaceutical manufacturers, wholesale distributors, health systems, and retail pharmacies must verify product identifiers—which include the GTIN, serial number, lot number, and expiration date—as part of saleable returns processes, suspect or illegitimate product investigations, and when responding to requests from the FDA or other regulatory bodies. And the U.S. pharmaceutical industry has mandated that product verifications must be completed in under one second.
The good news is that TraceLink Product Information Manager - Product Verification makes verifying products fast and easy. Download our new solution brief to see how it works.
