Abstract

Acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) are the most common infectious diseases. Antiviral drugs (AD) are considered to be the main group for etiotropic treatment in pharmacotherapy complex of acute respiratory viral infection.
Aim. To study the assortment and consumption of AD on the pharmaceutical market of Ukraine for 2013-2017.
Materials and methods. The AD range analysis was carried out according to the information retrieval system “Pharmstandard” of the company “Morion”, consumption – by the indicator DDDs/1000 inhabitants/day.
Results and discussion. The most consumed antiviral drugs in 2013-2017 are inosine pranobex, rimantadine, umifenovir and other antiviral agents. The annual volume of ARVI patients requiring the use of antiviral agents covers from 21.95 % to 23.58 % of the population, and in fact, during the study period, antiviral agents for the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections with one 10-day course were used from 0.60 % to 0.85 % among the population of Ukraine.
