    Abstract: Systems and methods for verifying proper possession of a medication are disclosed. A reader device scans a code printed on the medication to extract an embedded serial number. The reader device captures biometric information of a person in possession of the medication. A first server queries a prescription database, which retrieves biometric characteristic data associated with the embedded serial number. A determination is made if the retrieved biometric characteristic data matches biometric characteristic data. The match information is displayed on the reader device.
