Anti-counterfeiting Measures
Pre-Market
We use a range of product and packaging security measures that help distinguish authentic products from those that are counterfeit. We also work to minimize the risk of counterfeit products entering our supply chain, from the source of ingredients through manufacturing and distribution.
Post-Market
In addition, we monitor markets and investigate counterfeiting activities, collaborating with regulatory and law enforcement authorities, as well as our business partners, to locate and remove counterfeits from the market, seize and destroy manufacturing equipment, and prosecute or take civil action against the perpetrators. We also work with governments and regulatory agencies to identify opportunities to strengthen laws and enforcement efforts, to ensure the integrity of distribution channels.
Raising awareness among our stakeholders of the dangers of counterfeit healthcare products is an important step in eliminating this illicit trade. For example, our Global Brand Protection Group holds summits to examine counterfeiting and product tampering activity around the world. The findings of these summits are incorporated into educational training for employees who handle and sell our products.
