The global pharmaceutical supply chain is worth trillions of dollars, but it’s plagued by counterfeit drugs, lack of transparency, and distribution inefficiencies. These challenges are especially severe in emerging markets where fake or expired medicines pose serious health risks.
XRP Healthcare, accessible at xrphealthcare.ai, is using the XRP Ledger (XRPL) to build a blockchain-powered pharmaceutical supply chain, bringing transparency and trust to an industry that desperately needs it.
The Problem: Fake & Untraceable Medicines
According to the World Health Organization (WHO),
- Up to 1 in 10 medical products in low- and middle-income countries are substandard or fake.
- Patients risk ineffective treatment, drug resistance, or even death.
- Supply chains lack real-time traceability, making recalls slow and accountability difficult.
