Ukraine has adopted the new law on pharmaceuticals (“Law“) that fundamentally changes the regulatory framework for pharmaceuticals. The Law is largely based on EU laws, although certain provisions, including as regards parallel importation of pharmaceuticals and regulatory data protection, are not aligned with EU laws and may create hurdles for companies operating in the Ukrainian market. The Law will be enacted within 2.5 years after the expiry/lifting of martial law.
 
In this video, we present these and other important changes that were introduced into Ukrainian healthcare regulations by the Law, its key implementation milestones and recommend actions to be undertaken to get prepared.
