The scanning function on your mobile phone can really detect fake medicines. This method is very effective.

A few days ago, I watched CCTV2’s “Half-Hour Economy” program (May 11), which said that a patient in Hubei bought Plavix, a drug that prevents blood clots, at a pharmacy. The medicine wears off after two or three days of taking it. So I scanned my phone password and found out the drug information was wrong. Later, I sent it to the Food and Drug Administration for testing and found that there was no drug in it. Through investigation, I discovered a drug black market in Tianjin. In this market, real, fake and expired medicines are interchangeable. Plavix is ??made from starch and peanuts, while insulin is filled with saline.

For a long time, due to the professional nature of drugs and other reasons, drug supervision has mainly remained at the government supervision level, and the public has no ability to identify. However, the emergence of mobile drug scanning software apps allows us to make a simple judgment on drugs, which is of great significance. Before talking about this application, I want to say in advance that the so-called scanning is not scanning. The QR code, but the only code on the drug packaging box, is called the China Electronic Drug Supervision Code.

Can be installed and used on Android phones and Apple phones. It currently has a drug electronic supervision code scanning function and can be used by the public for free. After installation, we can use it immediately. After just opening the application, we can see the following interface. I use the iPhone interface and open the code scanning module marked with a red box.

If you have the drug readily available, you can experience it immediately. Scan with the surveillance code. If your phone lens is broken, don't worry. Manually enter the 20-digit number below the supervision code on the left and click Start Search. Same experience.
