DISTRIBUTION: DSCSA SOLUTIONS
The Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) is a component of the U.S. Drug Quality and Security Act (DQSA), enacted in 2013, aimed at enhancing the security of the pharmaceutical supply chain to protect patients from counterfeit, stolen, contaminated, or otherwise harmful drugs. The DSCSA enhances patient safety by ensuring that prescription drugs are authentic, properly handled, and traceable. It also reduces the risk of counterfeit or substandard medications entering the supply chain, fostering trust in the pharmaceutical system. It establishes a framework for tracking and tracing prescription medications distributed within the United States.
