Health protection and security of consumers as a right derived from the Peruvian Political Constitution and the Code for Protection and Defense of Consumers searchs to establish, among other mecanisms, an alert system and proper intervention against risky products. This system establishes the necesity for the State to provide consumers with a mecanism that will avoid risky products to be available in the market. The implementation of this preliminary alert system, was supposed to be launched in 2010, but as in today is still not working. This research, talks about the problems origin by the lack of the alert system and of proper intervention against risky and potentially dangerous products, determing the urgent necesity of its implementation and the obstacles it faces now a days, such as vague definition regarding its dues and resposabilities and the variety of existing rules and regulations that make this even more complicated, among other reasons. Adittionally, we analyze and investigate some methods that other countries have aplied worldwide, finding out that this matter is quite new and is still being developed. We have established three key points as to assure an effective implementation in our country: (i) strenghening the responsabilities and role of the Consumption Authority, (ii) monitoring incoming products from abroad to prevent security issues and lastly, (iii) constant and permanent exchange of information and data with hospitals, clinics and health instutions with the sole purpose of identifying and listing products that are generating health problems and banned them from the consumers market.
