To protect consumers from prescription drugs that are counterfeit, contaminated, adulterated or otherwise unfit for U.S. distribution, the U.S. Congress enacted the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) in 2013. The DSCSA deadline to comply with interoperability requirements—November 27, 2023—is rapidly approaching for drug manufacturers, repackagers, distributors and dispensers.
The DSCSA requires that every prescription drug package and homogeneous case have its own unique identifier in machine- and human-readable forms. The machine-readable form must be a 2D Datamatrix barcode that contains the following:
The DSCSA also requires implementation of an electronic, interoperable system to trace prescription drug products by November 27, 2023.
