Argentina operates a national pharmaceutical traceability program managed by Administración Nacional de Medicamentos, Alimentos y Tecnología Médica (ANMAT).
The system is called the National Medicines Traceability System (Sistema Nacional de Trazabilidad de Medicamentos – SNT) and tracks medicines from manufacturer or importer through distribution to dispensing. The objective is to prevent counterfeit medicines and allow regulators to monitor product movement in real time across the supply chain.
All supply chain participants including manufacturers, importers, distributors, logistics operators, pharmacies, and hospitals must report traceability events to ANMAT’s central database.
Unlike many modern systems, Argentina’s program focuses on event reporting rather than full hierarchical aggregation, but serialized identifiers must still be maintained across distribution activities.
