Talk:Pharmaceutical distribution

Direction of article
I am not sure where you intend to take this article. Distribution and logistics are good topics but what is your intent here. Regulations and industry practices are highly varied. Distribution packaging is one small part of the distribution-logistics subject. You can certainly reference the drug packaging page and even duplicate some of the photos. (The packaging production line photo has nothing to do with distribution packaging) Pkgx (talk) 21:05, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I am done here for now. I just wanted to start an article on the topic. This could be expanded to include any of the following information -
 * Which countries or regions manufacture and export drugs
 * Which countries or regions import drugs
 * What is the typical logistics chain, like for example, manufacturer -> wholesaler -> retailer, or however it goes
 * How does international drug export and import work? Are there quality checks at customs, restrictions on importing some drugs, etc
 * What are the economics of international distribution?
 * How is shipping drugs different from shipping any other sort of freight?
 * What do you think should be here?  Blue Rasberry   (talk)  21:19, 23 June 2017 (UTC)

Drug distribution → Pharmaceutical distribution – This is to distinguish from the generic 'drug', which includes both pharmaceutical drugs and illicite/quasi-legal/legal recreational or 'unregulated' drugs. It's a matter of specificity. Thanks for considering this. I will not enter the discussion unless specifically pinged and asked to do so.
