This law aims to strengthen the security of essential drug supplies for the Department of Defense (DoD). It mandates the military to prepare a detailed report on its reliance on foreign suppliers for pharmaceutical ingredients, particularly those from high-risk countries. While directly focused on the military, the goal is to enhance national pharmaceutical security, indirectly contributing to supply stability during crises.
Key points
Requires a report analyzing the extent to which the Department of Defense relies on foreign suppliers for key pharmaceutical ingredients.
Mandates updating risk management guidelines for the military drug supply chain to reduce vulnerability to disruptions.
The DoD must rely on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) determinations regarding drug components.
