The problem of drug counterfeiting is global; therefore, it is relevant for all countries of the world. However, the effectiveness combating the spread of counterfeit medicines (CM) differs in different countries, as evidenced by data on the level of counterfeit. Ensuring proper quality control of drugs in all areas of their circulation requires national regulatory authorities to systematically address these urgent problems; primarily, this concerns the pharmaceutical legislation to counteract the spread of counterfeit medicines and medical devices (MD), as well as to implement the effective state policy in this extremely important area that determines the national security of the state.
