Abstract
The aim of the work is analysis of the current state and trends in the metformin-based drug development with the subsequent formation of the logistics system of scientific research.
 Materials and methods. Studies were conducted using databases on the Internet (2015-2022): PubMed; U.S. Food and Drug Administration, European Medicines Agency, the State Expert Center of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, scientific and metric databases - Scopus, Cochrane Database, US Patent Office. It has used retrospective, logical, graphic research methods, content analysis, modelling.
 Results. The model of the logistic system of metformin scientific research has developed. It represents the set of elements that are interconnected through information communication, its composition and features, which are associated with the pharmacological action of metformin, are determined.
 Logistic system of metformin scientific research allows: to demonstrate the uniqueness of the drug, to reveal its potential and new opportunities for medical use, prospects for the development of new types of dosage forms and new combined drugs; to identify the threat of patent infringement, to identify opportunities for establishing partnerships; to present scientific products in the form of a drug on the pharmaceutical market, optimizing the research time, reducing the development stages due to the available information and documentation, ensuring the synchronization of innovative information flows; to optimize the total costs of scientific research and receive at the expense of the specified profit.
 Logistic system of metformin scientific research is recommended for implementation in scientific organizations and pharmaceutical companies that perform R&D to achieve concentration of information search in solving logistics problems in the field of creating medicines based on metformin.
 Conclusions. Thus, the management of scientific research in pharmacy using the logistic approach ensures the time reduction of the medicine to entry into the market, reduces the cost of its creation, prevents duplication of research, and promotes optimization of solutions. The analysis revealed that the creation of medicines based on metformin should be aimed at the search and development of combined sugar-reducing drugs with mutually complementary mechanisms of action
