Short Review: A new technology promising to ensure drug safety
With the recent technological developments and the declaration of an individual or a community known as Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008, it can be assumed that the blockchain technology is mainly used for cryptocurrency, and it is the beginning of a disruptive transition in every area of existence. However, this technology has attracted attention towards providing security in the pharmaceutical supply chain in recent years as well.
Benefits and drawbacks of good manufacturing practies (GMP) and supply chain tracking in pharmaceutical manufacturing can be determined via blockchain and sensor (Radio Frequency Identification Technology) technologies and these technologies can ensure the protection and health of the chain all the way up to the patients.
Furthermore, the capacity can be tracked back to the raw material and pharmaceutical supply chain, which essentially ensures the drug's protection by gathering, transferring, and exchanging drug data in the manufacturing, storage, delivery, and sales connections. After a precise study conducted by the experts in this particular area, it was determined that the concept of counterfeit drugs can be fully eliminated.
