Check the packaging for the official Mexican health authority seal. This ensures the medication’s origin and adherence to Mexican regulations.
Compare the medication’s appearance (pill shape, color, markings) to images found on reputable online pharmacies or the manufacturer’s website. Discrepancies may indicate counterfeits.
Verify the manufacturer’s information using online resources. Cross-reference the batch number and expiry date with details available on the manufacturer’s official site.
Purchase medications only from licensed pharmacies in Mexico. Avoid buying from street vendors or unauthorized online sellers to mitigate risks.
Consult a doctor or pharmacist about any concerns regarding your medication before use. They can assist in identifying potential issues or confirming authenticity.
Note the medication’s unique identifying numbers and record them for future reference. This will help in tracing its origin and confirming its legitimacy.
If you suspect a counterfeit, report it to the appropriate Mexican health authorities. Their contact details can be found online.
Be aware that slight variations in packaging might occur due to different distribution channels. However, significant differences are a red flag.
