The European Medicines Verification Organisation “The European Medicines Verification Organisation (EMVO) is the guarantee of patient security in Europe.” The European Medicines Verification Organisation (EMVO) has taken responsibility for advancing the formation of the European Medicines Verification System (EMVS). The EMVS is in accordance with the EU’s Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD) and the Delegated Regulation (DR). It ensures the implementation of a functioning, secure, interoperable and cost effective system across Europe. The infiltration of falsified medicines in the European supply chain is a major and continuous threat for the patient health and security. Because patient health and safety is of the utmost importance to the pharmaceutical industry, a comprehensive strategy at European Level is required. Therefore the European Medicines Verification Organisation (EMVO) was created as a joint initiative of EU stakeholders, representing manufacturers (Medicines for Europe, EFPIA, Affordable Medicines Europe), wholesalers (GIRP) and community pharmacists (PGEU).
