The Effectiveness of the Use of Technology in Patient-Centred Care for Counterfeit Drug Control

Counterfeit drugs impose risk to human life and properties. Many organizations globally are involved in counterfeit drugs control with focusing on pharmaceutical production and supply chain, while less or rare efforts are invested at terminal intervention by the end users. This study focused on end...
