Abstract

Today, the pharmaceutical market of Ukraine and other countries has seen the emergence and active development of a trend of launching new pharmaceutical products registered as dietary supplements that are "disguised as a drug" by their properties. Unscrupulous manufacturers resorting to such approaches,namely, when bringing dietary supplements to the market under the guise of drugs, save time and significant funds,some of which they direct to aggressive marketing, sometimes trying to mislead doctors, pharmacists and consumers. A similar situation has unfolded around the drug Proteflazid® manufactured by Ecopharm LLC (Ukraine), which is currently widely and successfully used to treat a number of viral diseases. Therefore, the awareness and conscious position of doctors and pharmacists should become a reliable safeguard against a distorted understanding of the role of drugs and dietary supplements in modern medicine and pharmacy. Keywords: drugs, dietary supplements, antiviral effect, efficacy and safety of therapy.
