Objects of investigation were wholesale and consumer prices of antiplatelets. Analysis was carried out on the base of well-known wholesale companies’ price lists.
Results. At present 87 names В01АС «Antiplatelet» are registered inUkraine. During analysis of price situation wholesale prices and weighted average consumer prices of antiplatelets were examined.

Price liquidity, adequate paying capacity and availability factors of antiplatelet from the established list were calculated.
