Why did Direct Success, Inc. (DSI) apply for Drug Distribution Wholesale license?

Yes, Direct Success, Inc. has been reaccredited by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy® (NABP®) for Drug Distributor Accreditation for another three-year term.

Direct Success is also a Woman Owned Business Enterprise.


Why is VAWD/NABP important?

NABP’s Drug Distributor Accreditation (formerly known as Verified-Accredited Wholesale Distributor®) is a resource for industry and regulatory bodies that establish uniform safeguards meant to protect the public health. Drug Distributor Accreditation plays a pivotal role in preventing counterfeit drugs from entering the United States drug supply and protects the public from drugs that have been contaminated, diverted, or counterfeited.
