The Russian government has adopted a new method for determining the prices for vital and essential drugs, according to an official spokesman of Russian Minister of Health Veronika Skvortsova, reports The Pharma Letter’s local correspondent.

The new method will be part of the amendments that will be soon approved to the existing federal law "On Turnover of Drugs in Russia" by the Russian Parliament (State Duma).

The government hopes these amendments will contribute to the decline of prices for certain vital drugs available in the domestic market.
