Pharmaceuticals

The concept drafted to support the low-price pharmaceuticals manufacturers

The Ministry for Industry and Trade prepared and submitted for the Government’s consideration the draft Resolution which should establish special pricing regulations for local manufacturers of pharmaceuticals from the lower price segment.

In the explanatory note to the draft, the Ministry’s representatives highlight the need for setting up a special procedure for re-registering prices for locally produced essential drugs with initially registered prices below RUB 50. The Ministry proposes to allow the local producers of such drugs set the ED prices based on the forecasted margin below 30%.

Deputies approved the law on expanding the USAIS system alcohol-containing pharmaceuticals

On June, 29 the Federation Council approved amendments to the Federal Law "On state regulation of manufacturing and circulation of ethyl alcohol, alcoholic and alcohol-containing products and restricting the consumption (drinking) of alcoholic products" and certain other legislative acts of the Russian Federation.

The Law includes alcohol-containing pharmaceuticals and medical devices (with mass content of ethyl alcohol of more than 0.5 % of the finished dosage volume) into the list of alcohol-containing products.

The Law envisages implementation of the statutory accounting system for production, circulation and transportation of alcohol-containing pharmaceuticals, pharmaceutical substances (ethanol) and medical devices. The Unified Statutory Automated Information System (USAIS) should cover production and purchase of pharmaceutical substances for manufacturing of alcohol-containing pharmaceuticals.

Government is to help local manufacturers with obtaining foreign patents

By the Resolution #548 dd. June 17, 2016 the Government of Russia adopted the rules for granting federal subsidies to Russian companies for partial reimbursement of costs for stamp duties paid when licensing Russian inventions and developments abroad.

The subsidies are supposed to be granted to Russian companies which provide services on foreign patenting of inventions and utility models to local manufacturers and exporters. The subsidy recipients will be selected by the Ministry for Industry and Trade.
