RFID in pharmaceuticals & healthcare
RFID technology offers pharmaceutical companies a number of advantages due to the complex international delivery chains involved. RFID makes it possible to identify drugs quickly and reliably at each point of the supply chain, from factory to consumer.
RFID technology can also help pharmaceutical companies create electronic pedigree solutions offering total transparency on complete tracking histories. ePedigree defends against counterfeit products and grey distribution channels.
