The Struggles of Manufacturers to the Widespread of Counterfeit Medicines

Three years had passed and there is no exact improvement in fighting off the widespread of counterfeit medicines. The Peterson Group, a non-profit organization campaigning against the proliferation of counterfeit medicines returned to Jakarta to review the status of medicine industry in the city. Although the hospitals and clinics have been more cautious of the supply of medicines coming in and out of their facilities, there are still instances which they cannot assure the distribution of these fraudulent medicines in drug stores and markets. The control may not already be in their hands but on the legal action taken by the manufacturers themselves.
