Introduction. Due to the population’s high demand for medical care for social diseases, the Russian market of medicines used to treat them was studied. Objective: to analyze the range of drugs for social diseases (for example, those to cure urogenital chlamydiasis). Material and methods. Patient management protocols, clinical guidelines for management, and official sources of information were applied. Logical, systematic analytical, graphical, marketing, and statistical (tabular, graphical) analyses were used. Results. The paper presents the results of analyzing the market of medicines for the treatment of social diseases, such as urogenital chlamydiasis, as of 2018. The investigators revealed the problems of the availability of drugs in ATC groups. The comparative analysis of the range of drugs in 2012 and 2018 showed no dramatic change in the pattern of their range. The number of trade names for the assortment under study increased 2.3-fold (primarily due to Russian manufacturers), which is suggestive of the development of the Russian pharmaceutical industry. Conclusion. The range of drugs for the treatment of urogenital chlamydiasis is under government control: many basic drugs for its therapy are included in the list of essential medicines; this provides government control of pricing and increases their availability for patients. However, there is some dependence on import for individual drugs.
