Summary

Why this matters:

  • Counterfeit medications are a serious, widespread health risk: Fake drugs are common — especially online — and can contain ineffective or dangerous ingredients that cause illness, injury or death.
  • Consumers often don’t know they’re at risk: Many people trust online pharmacies and feel confident in being able to spot fakes, even though most illegal sellers look legitimate and are hard to detect.
  • Prevention depends on smarter communication: Fear‑based warnings often backfire; empowering, clear and targeted education is more effective at helping people protect their health.
