Abstract

COUNTERFEIT MEDICINE TRAFFICKING threatens public health regardless of its harmful economic consequences and has made the international community determined to effectively fight against it. The CRIMINALIZATION of COUNTERFEIT MEDICINE TRAFFICKING and similar behaviors, according to an international instrument, is one of the most important strategies to fight against this phenomenon. However, at the regional level, the Council of Europe Convention (MEDICRIME) has proposed the CRIMINALIZATION of COUNTERFEIT MEDICINE TRAFFICKING and similar behaviors and provided an appropriate response to it by the Member States. In the Iranian law, “the Act relating to medical and pharmaceutical regulations” ratified in 1955 with subsequent adhesions, without reference to medicine trafficking, attempted to organize medicine importation and exportation and fight against the medicine counterfeiting. However, the law on Fighting against Smuggling of Goods and Currency ratified in 2014 has clearly criminalized medicine trafficking, regarded trafficking medicine-like other goods - as an economic crime and in the CRIMINALIZATION. It has considered no prominent role for public health. The article suggests defining the concept of counterfeit and ILLEGAL MEDICINEs and independent CRIMINALIZATION of trafficking counterfeit and ILLEGAL MEDICINEs such as substandard medicines which falls into the category of crimes against health, due to its harmful consequences on people’s health.
