Sweden collapsed pharmacy monopoly
According to Swedish radio this week there was a historical event - the country"s collapsed state pharmacy monopoly, which existed in the Kingdom for 40 years. The result of the emerging competition, it is hoped the Swedes would be more convenient hours of operation, expansion and more flexible service.

This is a clear sign that we came to the place where he wanted to increase the accessibility of pharmacies to citizens through the de-monopolization. Come on the market new actors who will compete for the favor of visitors, and the pharmacies themselves appear more" - he stressed.
