The Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine (AMCU) fined the pharmacy chain Med-Service Dnipro (Dnipro) UAH 101,000 for failing to submit information on time regarding drugs for the treatment of acute rhinitis.
According to the AMCU, the decision was made on June 12.
During the investigation of the case, which was initiated on the grounds of violation of the legislation on the protection of economic competition in the market of medicines that can be used to treat acute rhinitis, the committee sent a request to the pharmacy to provide information on the interchangeability of medicines within 10 days, but Med-Service Dnipro responded with a delay of seven days.
When determining the amount of the fine, the AMCU took into account mitigating circumstances and the absence of intent in the actions of the pharmacy chain.
Med-Service DNEPR LLC, EDRPOU code 41606497, was registered in 2017. 90% of the company is owned by Med-Service Group LLC.
The ultimate beneficiary is Oleg Tokarev.
