Govt may mandate QR codes to check fake cancer drugs

The Indian government plans to require QR codes on all cancer drugs. This step aims to prevent counterfeit medicines and ensure drug authenticity. The Drugs Technical Advisory Board has agreed to the proposal. An amendment to the Drugs Rules, 1945, is necessary before implementation. This move follows earlier efforts to add barcodes on top 300 drug brands.
