Does anyone know an Indian brand of Rapamycin that has codes on the sheet of pills that you can use to verify the pills on the producers website?
No, I’ve never heard of anything like what you are suggesting. I doubt the Indian pharma companies have anything like this. The leading Sirolimus generic companies are Zydus and Biocon. See the websites below:
If you’re concerned about counterfeit drugs, I recommend you read these threads:

Here: Rapamycin / Sirolimus from India, Lab Test Report on Quality / Purity
@RapAdmin kindly note that Biocon has stopped selling Rapamycin for past five months or so. They sold the molecule to another company called Eris life sciences. I stay in India but I had never heard of Eris, so validated with a Biocon board person that they sold all the nephrology related compounds to Eris.
I also got Sirolimus blood test done using the eris life sciences stock and blood levels of Sirolimus after two hours of dosing was satisfactory.
This is just FYI so that people don’t get psyched when they don’t get Biocon stuff anymore.

Thanks, Yes - we’ve noted it in the forums in a number of places, but many people won’t see those posts, so its good to repost:
Biocon continues to divest with $150M sale of insulin and other brands to Eris
In Biocon’s continuing effort to divest and Eris Lifesciences’ attempt to grow, the companies have expanded a previous agreement, with Bangalore-based generics giant Biocon selling Indian branded formulations businesses to Mumbai-based Eris for 12.4 billion Indian rupees ($150 million).
The new deal includes Biocon’s portfolio of metabolic, oncology and critical care products in India and builds on an agreement from November of 2023, when Biocon sold its dermatology and nephrology branded formulations businesses to Eris for 3.5 billion rupees ($41 million)
