To improve the mechanisms of state drug trafficking regulation, certain changes in Russian legislation are required not only to simplify the process of drug trafficking and to decriminalize the actions of medical and pharmaceutical workers, but also to introduce current approaches to treating pain syndrome into medical practice, to expand the range of narcotic drugs and to optimize their need calculation. The stated need for narcotic drugs placed under international control in several countries was studied; priorities were identified in the range of legal narcotic analgesics, and their availability was explored in different regions of the world, including in Russia.
