The objects of research were information on synthetic hypoglycemic drugs registered in Ukraine, as well as herbal medicines belonging to the category A10 “Antidiabetic drugs”. Analytical and comparative methods, as well as marketing analysis and generalization of information were applied.

The structure of the pharmaceutical market of medicines from category A10 “Antidiabetic drugs” is formed by mono-drugs, their share is 84.2 %, while combined drugs make 12.9 %, and only 2.9 % belongs to medicinal plant raw materials and their mixtures. Among mono-drugs, the most numerous by the number of trade names is the group of sulfonylureas and biguanides, the percentage of which is 33.9 %. The pharmaceutical market of antidiabetic drugs in Ukraine is import-dependent, as the share of foreign medicines from 24 importing countries is 59.3 %.
