Are they licensed? Will they send the T3 records? Will those records hold up if an inspector asks? You have been here before. Maybe you chased a broker for weeks for a pedigree that never arrived. Maybe you avoided trading altogether because the documentation risk felt too high. Maybe you did trade, and spent months piecing together records from email threads and PDF attachments.
The paperwork is the whole game. It is the difference between a routine transaction and a phone call you do not want to receive.
It does not have to work that way. InStockRx was built so that question never has to stop a trade.
They sell on price. The T3 records are coming, just not yet. When an inspector arrives, you are the one who needs to produce them.
PDFs from three different sources, a chain-of-custody assembled manually, records you hope match if someone compares them. This is what most pharmacies call documentation.
They said they are licensed. They said the product is clean. That is not the same as knowing. And when it is your license on the line, "they told me" is not a defense.
Every transaction, by law, requires three documents. InStockRx generates them automatically, stores them securely, and makes them available on demand. You never collect them manually.
Before any pharmacy can buy or sell on InStockRx, they go through full verification. Every participant is confirmed as a licensed, authorized trading partner. Not assumed. Confirmed. No one browses, lists, or completes a transaction until that check is done.
Every pharmacy holds an active, valid state pharmacy license. Unlicensed participants cannot join.
Every member is verified as an ATP under DSCSA before their first transaction. Status is confirmed, not assumed.
No pharmacy can list, browse, or complete a transaction until verification is complete. The marketplace is closed to everyone else.
What this means for you as a buyer
Every seller you trade with on InStockRx has already been confirmed as a licensed, verified authorized trading partner. You can trade knowing your documentation is protected on both sides of every deal, without doing any of the legwork yourself.
GS1 is the global standard behind drug serialization, barcode identification, and supply chain traceability. Your wholesaler uses it. The FDA requires it. InStockRx is built on it. No other US pharmacy-to-pharmacy marketplace has publicly confirmed this certification.
That means every NDC, lot number, and serial identifier on InStockRx is validated against the same standards your wholesaler uses. When an auditor reviews your records, they match. No gaps, no format mismatches, no explaining yourself.
