Integration Story: Industry Opinion Favors RFID For Drug E-pedigree
Source:
RFID Journal
With public comments in from about 55 sources, the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is now proceeding to prepare a recommendation for an electronic
pedigree (e-pedigree) system that pharmaceutical makers, distributors and retailers would
required to use to identify products as they moved through the supply chain. The trackand-
trace solution would be used to not only record which parties handled a drug during
shipment, but also verify its authenticity and thwart counterfeiting. The FDA was
accepting public comment until May 19, and now it will begin the process of analyzing
those comments before making its recommendation as to how drugs would be tracked,
what technology and what standards might be used, and who could help create those
standards.
