QR Codes for Pharmaceutical
Comply with DSCSA and protect patients from counterfeits
Every prescription drug sold in the US requires serialized GS1 DataMatrix barcodes per DSCSA. QRMax generates compliant codes with per-unit GTIN, serial, lot, and expiry — validated against GS1 check-digit rules so you never ship a bad barcode.
Why QR Codes for Pharmaceutical?
See how QRMax delivers real, measurable results for pharmaceutical businesses of every size.
DSCSA-Compliant Serialization
Generate GS1 DataMatrix barcodes with GTIN (AI 01), serial number (AI 21), lot (AI 10), and expiry date (AI 17) — the exact structure the FDA mandates for every saleable pharmaceutical unit.
Built-in GTIN Validation
Our GS1 validator catches wrong check digits, malformed dates (YYMMDD), and length violations before the barcode is printed — saving you from million-unit product recalls.
Wholesale + Retail Ready
GS1-128 barcodes for aggregated cases and pallets (SSCC), GS1 DataMatrix for saleable units. Both render at the exact resolution pharma scanners expect.
Beyond DSCSA: EU FMD Ready
The same serialized format works for the EU Falsified Medicines Directive — one workflow for both markets.
