Medicine adulteration in Nigeria has become a ticking time bomb that threatens public confidence in healthcare.
Counterfeit medicines infiltrate markets through weak supply chains, illegal vendors, and poor regulatory compliance. Unfortunately, many patients unknowingly consume fake medicines daily.
The consequences include treatment failure, drug resistance, avoidable deaths, and financial losses.
Strengthening medicine regulation, improving pharmaceutical supply chain monitoring, and increasing public awareness are critical to solving this challenge.
The safety of medicines should never be compromised. GetRight Pharmacy is committed to purchase medicines from only registered suppliers.
