War On Counterfeit Drugs Takes Off
The proliferation of counterfeit drugs on the global market and easy availability via online pharmacies is an increasing problem. The makers of counterfeit drugs have enjoyed and profited from loopholes in a system designed to deliver healthy medicines to those in need. The rising cost of prescription medications and the ubiquitous presence of online and overseas pharmacies means more people than ever are threatened by these counterfeiting operations.
MANUFACTURERS OF fake drugs who thought their nefarious activities would continue undetected would soon be laughing at the wrong side of their mouths.
This is because stringent measures are being adopted by relevant stakeholders in both the public and the private sectors to clamp-down on the activities of unscrupulous individuals whose actions have been the direct result of the emergence of counterfeit drugs on the Ghanaian market.
