LEGAL ANALYSIS OF THE BULGARIAN LEGISLATION IN THE FIELD OF REGULATION OF PHARMACY PRACTICE FOR THE PERIOD 1903-2016

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to track the legislative settlements in Bulgaria covering the regulation of the pharmaceutical market and the pharmacy services provided to the public. The main task for the authors is to identify good practices which can be used as a model for the formation of a specific separate law for pharmacies, which would facilitate the implementation of the novel groups of pharmaceutical services in the modern pharmacy practice. The method of legalhistorical research was used. A comparison has been made between the definition for pharmacies, wholesalers and drugstores as health care facilities, the requirements for staff qualification and skills, the labor organization during the different periods and the trends in the development of rules. Conclusions: The significant differences in the socioeconomic structure of the state before 09.09.1944 and after 10.11.1989 reflect in the elaboration and implementation of the specific legal framework on the pharmaceutical market. Specific legislation on the structure and practice of pharmacies as well as on the content and volume of pharmaceutical care and services separate from the regulation of medicinal products, medical devices and all other activities is currently needed.
