Criminal actors and networks operating in the EU are involved in the import, export and the production of illicit products. Criminal actors are running clandestine laboratories in the EU for the production of counterfeit pharmaceuticals.

The report explains some of the wider trends and incentives at play in criminals’ use of social media as a marketplace to sell these fake medicines and the misuse of a number of prescription and over-the-counter medicines as well as other health products.
