Pharmacy sales in Ukraine from January to June 2026 increased by 15% in monetary terms compared to the same period in 2025—reaching nearly 121 billion hryvnia—while in volume terms, they decreased by 5.8%—to approximately 533.955 million packages.
The company “Business Credit” reported this to the Interfax-Ukraine news agency, citing the results of a study it conducted.
The weighted average price of items in the pharmacy basket for the first half of the year was 226.65 UAH per package, which is 22.15% higher than in January–June 2025.
Thus, the growth of the pharmacy market in monetary terms occurred against the backdrop of a decline in the total number of packages sold and a significant increase in the average cost of pharmacy products.
At the same time, the market’s growth rate in monetary terms accelerated compared to the first quarter. In January–March, pharmacy sales increased by 11.13%—to 60.245 billion UAH—while the volume of sales decreased by 4.8%, to approximately 270.958 million packages.
At the end of 2025, pharmacy sales in Ukraine totaled over 220.287 billion UAH, which is 14.23% more than in 2024. In volume terms, they declined by 2.25% during that period.
