Authors

  • Sudheer Kumar Kothuru

Abstract

The pharmaceutical industry is undergoing a transformative paradigm shift with the integration of blockchain technology. This comprehensive study explores the blockchain revolution's impact on pharmaceuticals, focusing on its potential to enhance security, transparency, and efficiency across the entire supply chain. Investigating blockchain applications from drug manufacturing to distribution and patient outcomes, this research delves into the novel ways blockchain mitigates counterfeit drugs, streamlines regulatory compliance, and facilitates seamless traceability. Through an exhaustive analysis of case studies and emerging trends, the study provides valuable insights into how blockchain is reshaping the pharmaceutical landscape, fostering trust, and ushering in a new era of innovation and accountability. The findings presented herein contribute to a nuanced understanding of the multifaceted implications of blockchain technology, positioning it as a pivotal catalyst for positive transformation within the pharmaceutical industry.
