Edupharm companies invest lots of money to research and produce drugs/medicines for patients. Patients and healthcare providers (doctors, nurses, hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, etc.) are all dependent on these companies for the treatment of diseases. These companies study the diseases, research, and invent new drugs/medicines for the diseases. Drug discovery and marketing are major expenses for these companies. The pharmaceutical companies require medical data and reports of patients for researching and discovering new drugs. This is made easier after medical records have gone electronic and are being stored after encryption through blockchain-based applications.

Pharmaceutical companies also face trouble during the drugs sale and purchase. As medical drugs move through various vendors in between, it becomes difficult to trace the authenticity or origin of the drug. Blockchain-based applications provide live tracing of drugs throughout its supply chain. With other technologies like Internet of Things in use, other parameters like temperature conditions of the drugs during its delivery can also be traced.
