In India counterfeit drugs is a serious expanding issue associated with the healthcare industry. United States Trade Representative (USTR) has warned IHO (Indian Health Organization) for its growing problem of counterfeit or spurious drugs. USTR report said almost 20 percent of all pharmaceutical goods sold in the Indian market are counterfeit which harms the decades-old reputation of being the “pharmacy to the world”. The traditional supply chain of drugs used by the pharmaceutical industry is outdated and offers limited transparency. As a result, the production of counterfeit drugs has increased exponentially. Keeping an eye on this increment that was observed in the USTR report, we propose a blockchain-based model which helps in countering falsified drug records which were claimed by exploiters. The reasons for using blockchain technology include its immutable property and effortless tracking of a drug in the blockchain. It ensures data integrity and authentication. Moreover, with the proposed model, we can also track the movement of the drug beginning from the manufacturer right up to the pharmacy.
