Substandard And Counterfeit Medicines Scientific Journals

There is no clear and agreed international definition of counterfeit drugs. It defines a fake drug as an unintentionally and fraudulently misidentified drug in relation to identity and / or origin. Counterfeiting can apply to generic and branded products. Counterfeit products may include the following: the wrong ingredients, the right ingredients, no active ingredients, fake packaging or insufficient materials. Sub-standard drugs are defined as original drugs that failed to pass the quality measurements and prescribed devices. These quality standards tests were derived from the pharmaceutical drugs. In 2011, WHO member states chose to include counterfeit and substandard drugs under the new term 'false, nonstandard medical products with the wrong, fake, counterfeit label'.
