Unfortunately, in addition to medicines certified and admitted to production and distribution, counterfeit medicines sometimes appear on the market. These can affect patients, not having the effect of the original product and damaging the reputation of the producing company.

Balkan Pharmaceuticals takes care of consumers and regularly develops various means of protecting its products, which ensures patient safety and trust.

Our first method against piracy, is the Online Product Verification System – Balkan Pharma Verification. This mode of protection is applied to medicines for which counterfeiting has been reported. Authenticity of the product can be checked on the Balkan Pharma Verification. Based on this code, the customer can find product information, such as name, batch number, production date and term of validity of the product.

By entering your drug code in the online form on the UPIC website, one can learn about how many times the page was accessed. This detail can be considered as an index of product authenticity. Since each box has a unique number, the codes checked too often are identified as suspicious by the system. Too many checks on a product indicate that the product is counterfeit.
