Medicine Counterfeiting Verification System

This project is a decentralized platform to verify the authenticity of medicines using blockchain technology. The system allows manufacturers to enter details of each medicine they produce, encrypts the data, and generates a QR code that can be scanned to verify the authenticity of the medicine. This solution helps combat counterfeit drugs and ensures consumers receive genuine products.

Features

• Manufacturer Data Entry: Allows manufacturers to input the details of the medicine they produce, such as name, batch number, manufacturing date, expiry date, etc.
• Data Encryption: The entered data is securely encrypted before being stored on the blockchain to prevent tampering.
• QR Code Generation: A unique QR code is generated for each batch of medicine. This QR code is linked to the encrypted data on the blockchain.
• Authenticity Verification: Consumers can scan the QR code on the product to check its authenticity and retrieve the details stored on the blockchain.
• Blockchain-Backed: All data is securely stored on the Ethereum blockchain using smart contracts, ensuring transparency and immutability.
• Decentralized: No central authority manages the data, ensuring complete decentralization of the medicine verification process..
