The Ministry of Health will develop a bill on mandatory electronic prescriptions.

      The Ministry of Health is developing a bill that will prohibit the purchase of prescription medications without an electronic prescription. This was reported by the head of Roszdravnadzor Alla Samoylova, as conveyed by RIA Novosti. According to Samoylova, there are still cases of such medications being sold without a prescription. Only a clear link to the electronic prescription through the MDLP system will be able to prohibit the dispensing of prescription medications. The Ministry of Health is working on this bill. If it is adopted, it will become completely impossible to buy medication without an electronic prescription. State Secretary and Deputy Minister of Health Oleg Salagay added that the agency is awaiting the completion of the document's text revision. Its discussion with the Federation Council will take place over the next few months. Photo: ru.freepik.com
