Overview Purdue Pharma L.P. specializes in prescription pain-relieving medicines. Counterfeiting costs pharmaceuticals billions of dollars annually and poses a significant threat to consumers worldwide. In response, state and Federal authorities are enacting regulations that require pharmaceutical organizations to secure their supply chains.

Working towards the solution Purdue Pharma, with the help of Unisys, implemented the industry's first electronic pedigree system in a fully operating supply chain.
