Pharmacies

Pharmacies (including hospital pharmacies) in the Czech Republic will be required to verify the authenticity of medicines and ‘decommission’ them according to the EU Directive 2011/62/EU - also called the Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD) before the medicines are supplied to the patients. 

Pharmacies will have to adapt their information systems to create a connection to Czech Medicnes Verification System (CZMVS). More information available in the documents  - section "general information" and Czech versions of the presentations for the pharmacists..

The end-user registration necessary to connect to the national authentication system is described in the detailed instructions here:

Detailed Guide to CZMVS Portal here.

No charges/fees are required from pharmacies to be paid to NOOL. 

Emergency Verification Application (EVA)

It can be accessed from any computer that has an attached keyboard, a supported web browser and internet connectivity. It does not support a scanner, and is not intended to be used as a permanent replacement for an integrated client system. Individuals wishing to use the EVA must already have approved user accounts set up via the CZMVS administration portal. Users must have sucessfully completed the registration process.
