Counterfeit medicines

An increasing number of medicinal products are seized by customs.

In 2006, the former Danish Medicines Agency, now the Danish Health and Medicines Authority, took the initiative to build a network against counterfeit medicine both in Denmark and internationally.

The network is made up of authorities, industrial associations and all links in the supply chain.

The network meets regularly to discuss issues related to counterfeit medicinal products to initiate local and cross-cutting precautionary measures.
