About

A Medexer venture for safer medicines

MedShield started inside Medexer with a simple observation: patients and pharmacists needed a practical way to check a pack before it left the counter — including on feature phones. Today that product is in pilot across Lagos and Kano.

Mission

Make authenticity checkable at the point of care and purchase

We build verification that works in real pharmacies: dual channels, clear results, and a Verified badge patients can recognize. We expand carefully — pilot first, national claims later.

Partners & regulators

Working toward national alignment

MedShield is designed to work toward integration with national regulatory verification systems, including alignment with NAFDAC-oriented verification approaches discussed in the Nigerian market. We do not claim an official partnership, endorsement, or regulatory approval that has not been granted. Pilot pharmacy and manufacturer relationships are scoped commercially and operationally within Lagos and Kano.
