RSD system is established to monitor and control the whole drug supply chain in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. RSD has also a free mobile app for citizens to be able to check the status and recall information of a drug by just scanning. RSD is recently awarded as best eHealth application in GCC countries.

In this concept, all drugs are serialized uniquely in box level, and the movement and transfer of the boxes are tracked in real time. Since the system records all history of the drugs, each loop of the end-to-end supply chain is connected to each other strongly and no counterfeit or fake drugs can enter into the middle of supply chain.

Governments are responsible to provide safe drugs to their citizens. However, counterfeit in pharmaceuticals has an average of 15% counterfeit worldwide. Based on WHO statistics, annual human deaths in world caused by drug counterfeit is between 500k-1million. This can be considered biggest war. For this reason, the need arises to find solutions for this problem by help of technology.

The central system connects all manufacturers, warehouses, pharmacies and hospitals in one central system, which is called RSD. A patient can be 100% sure that, the drug purchased in the legal supply chain is original. For this reason, RSD not only protects human health, also protects the patients, governments and also the stakeholders to loose their money.

As acronym, in Arabic languaage RSD means "to monitor". All stakeholders has to connect the system forced by legislation, which means building the capacity for 12k+ stakeholders by trainings. For those reasons, RSD system is not just a technology, but is a whole concept of knowledge-technology-training-law.
