Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke about the development of the country's pharmaceutical industry during a direct line in Gostiny Dvor.
As for vital and essential medicines, by 2030 we must reach 90% supply with our own drugs, and 40% for medical devices. Overall, this work is moving, and moving at a good pace.
The head of state also emphasized that there are no problems with a shortage of vital medicines in the country. However, rare failures in the availability of medicines occur due to the shortcomings of authorized departments.
It is worth noting that the Ministry of Industry and Trade responded to the head of state's speech. The department emphasized that they are monitoring the situation with the production of saline solution in the country. By the end of this year, it is planned to introduce more than 18 million vials into civil circulation.
