Résumé
Enormous profits that item-level traceability for pharmaceutical drugs provides to society in terms of public health and ensuring access to medicines enforces some governments to require this feature to the different actors involved in the pharmaceutical supply chain. Other existing works have been designed without considering the difficulties of deploying traceability systems in the storehouses currently working. The system described in this paper is based on ITS technologies and aims to meet, specifically, the requirements set by the Ministry of Health of Spain, but minimizing the impact of deployment in existing pharmaceutical distributors.
