Abstract

Aim. Analysis and systematization of the main market trends development in pressurized pharmaceutical preparations in pharmaceutical and veterinary practice. Materials and methods. Methods of systematic approach, bibliographic methods, information retrieval, analysis, comparison and generalization, statistical processing, tabular and graphic means of visual presentation of the obtained data were used during the market research. The analysis of registered in Ukraine pressurized pharmaceutical preparations was carried out based on the data of the State Register of Medicinal Products of Ukraine, “Morion” information search program, the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification of electronic resource Compendium.online and the list of registered veterinary medicinal products.
