MediFides

Medicines “medi” shall be trusted in good faith “(bona) fides”.

At MSD, we invest in industry-leading technology that is focused on protecting patients from the harm associated with counterfeit and diverted medicines.

Serialization, adding a unique 2D barcode on each package, is one of the tools we are investing in to prevent or detect counterfeiting.

MediFides mobile app enables anyone, from a distributor to a pharmacist to a patient, to scan the code and verify it as a serial number corresponding to a genuine product of our Company. To allow secure and immutable product tracing that could be used to verify the product, MediFides is enabled by blockchain technology.
