Pharmaceuticals are one of the most profitable business today, being unsatisfied with this profit, many of them have involved in sale of fake and expired medicines. The usage of these bogus medicines are high in developing countries and this has been constantly increasing to a very large number resulting in the death of many innocent people because of ineffective medicines. The number of deaths has been quite increasing because of lack of adequate knowledge about solving these issues. In an attempt to put an end to this problem, we have proposed a methodology in our paper. This system can be implied around the globe to sole the present problems, its prerequisite is centralization of the medicine manufacturers. A connecting link is formed between the manufacturer and the customer, which prevents the dealer’s illegal activities. This link is achieved by providing customers with e-bills generated from the company. This method helps in monitoring the prices of the various drugs and preventing the usage of outdated medicines.
