Additionally, it is provided for the availability of information about the active and auxiliary components that are part of the medicines. Also indicated are the various pharmacological substances involved in the production process.

The state register provides for the presence of a VED table, which indicates medications under a unique name for a pharmaceutical substance described by a nomenclature or chemical formulas. The drugs from this section are used in almost all branches of traditional medicine, which is available to the citizens of Russia. For example, inpatient, high-quality outpatient and emergency medical care.

Data registry creation history

State register of imported and foreign medicines since 1971 is drawn up as a documentation system that contains all the necessary information about the drugs. The electronic database must contain: an insert leaflet, a certificate confirming the successful registration, as well as an order for industrial production. Experts have determined the recommended amount of information to be entered into each block. Additionally, there are clear deadlines for data entry.

Thanks to the creation of a public register, information collected by specialists on trade and international non-proprietary names, packaging, release forms, recommended dosages and pharmacological groups of drugs are used as basics when compiling various lists:

• Strong and poisonous ingredients. The list is drawn up by specialists from the Standing Committee on Drug Control.
• VED table.
• List of medicines that can be obtained on a preferential basis.
• Lists A and B, which indicate the INN and the main trade names (synonyms) of the drugs. All synonyms of the medicines included in the list must be included in these lists.

If it was decided to cancel the registration of a medicine, then the corresponding entry is made in the register within 24 hours. Data protection is carried out in accordance with the current laws of the Russian Federation. A backup copy of the information stored in the database is created every 30 days.

The principle of maintaining a register of pharmacological agents for use in traditional medicine meets the requirements that are prescribed in the order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated August 26, 2010 (No. 746H).

Why and for whom is it intended

The State Register of Medicines is published in Russia annually. This registry defines the nomenclature of drugs, which is considered by specialists as the main characteristic of the national pharmaceutical market and the health care system of any country.

Legislation does not control the quality of information in unofficial directories, which is why it is not recommended to rely on the information indicated in them. The data may be up-to-date, but it is intended to provide basic information, not exhaustive information. It is for this reason that the state register is in great demand.

The state register of medicines is required to achieve the following results:

• Organization of statistical observations in various spheres of drug circulation.
• Identification of business entities that are engaged in the production and subsequent sale of drugs at the serial level. In this case, all established standards and applicable regulations must be followed.
• Obtaining a legal basis for wholesale and retail sales of medicines in the Russian Federation.
• Ensuring openness and publicity of up-to-date information about business entities.
• Official confirmation of the research, as well as the study of the properties of the drug declared by the manufacturer.
• Achieving well-coordinated interaction within the framework of general methodological principles with information bases of other central executive bodies.
• Familiarization of medical workers with pharmacological agents approved in Russia.

The State Register of the Ministry of Health includes a list of safe drugs with their international names and dates of registration / deregistration within Russia.

The register of available medicines is actively used when collecting applications from regional centers for the supply of necessary drugs, when assessing production for enterprises, when selling medicines outside the Russian Federation, as well as when creating the necessary state balance of supply and demand for certain medicines.

The register contains data that is necessary not only for specialists from the medical industry, but also for government institutions involved in the regulation of drug circulation. For this reason, health authorities, the Federal Tax Service, the Ministry of Economic Development, and the Federal Customs Service have access to the information base.

How to use

The category of approved drugs includes only those funds that have passed mandatory registration with the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation and were recorded in the corresponding register. Only in this case, the state takes responsibility for checking the safety and effectiveness of the drug. Additionally, specialists carry out the necessary clinical studies, even if they have already been previously conducted in other countries.

For wide access to the Unified Federal Register of Medicines, the official website of the Ministry was created health care, which has its own database of registered manufacturers, their authorized persons and themselves medicines.

The following categories are available on the official Internet portal of the state register:

• Medical organizations.
• Medicines and their manufacturers.
• Maximum selling prices.
• Authorized persons.
• Principal Investigators.
• Approved clinical trials.

Additionally, it is provided for the availability of official documents, letters and orders that are associated with operations in the production, sale and use of pharmacological agents.

What is VED

The List of Vital and Essential Medicines (VED) developed by specialists is a table that includes several categories.

The VED list is compiled by specialists only for international non-proprietary names (INN).

Preferential prescriptions can only be issued by the attending physician if the patient is legally using social services. If we are talking about the trade name of the drug, then you can get a prescription if the drug is proven ineffective.

Additionally, the medical commission of the medical institution must issue a written approval. The patient can buy any drug for his own money, but preferential prescriptions are issued for drugs that have an INN in the indicated dosage form. It should be noted that the international non-proprietary name indicates the chemical name or main substance of the drug.

To find the necessary drug, you need to open the official website of the state register and enter the name of the drug in the search bar. By the trade name, you can see exactly how the active ingredient is called. It is necessary to select the required drug from the list and open its official marketing authorization. At the very bottom of the page, it remains to check the entry whether the pharmacological agent belongs to the VED category or not.

The cost of medicines from the category of essential drugs is controlled at the state level. All drugs on the list are subject to allowable markups to the final prices.

People from the privileged category (for example, Chernobyl victims, disabled people, participants in the Second World War) can receive drugs from the VED category absolutely free. Get acquainted with the list of medicines registered in Russia, as well as study the official instructions for the drug prescribed by the attending physician can be provided with access to the electronic database of the state register of medicinal funds.
