Straipsnyje nagrinėjamas vienas iš „sunkiųjų“ vertikaliųjų apribojimų konkurencijos teisėje – lygiagrečios prekybos draudimas (ribojimas), koncentruojantis į tokio pobūdžio susitarimų vertinimą farmacijos sektoriaus kontekste. Straipsnyje atskleidžiama, kad dėl specifinės ekonominės ir teisinės farmacijos sektoriaus aplinkos lygiagrečios prekybos ribojimo susitarimai ne visada turėtų būti laikomi antikonkurenciniais. Diskutuojama, kiek yra pagrįsta, kad tokio pobūdžio susitarimų itin neigiamas vertinimas yra labiau nulemtas Europos Sąjungos vidaus rinkos integracijos tikslo nei teisinės ar ekonominės logikos.Te article examines one of the hardcore vertical restraints in competition law – prohibition (restriction) of parallel trade, with the focus on the assessment of such agreements within the context of pharmaceutical industry. The article discloses that due to the very specific economical and legal environment of the pharmaceutical sector, agreements restricting parallel trade should not be condemned as anticompetitive in all cases. It is discussed whether it is reasonable that extremely negative attitude towards such agreements is more conditioned upon the European Union’s internal market integration goal than legal or economic logic.

India has emerged as a global player for pharmaceuticals. The pharmaceutical revolution of 1970-90 of Indian Pharma Industry had demonstrated that India could be self-sufficient in the manufacture of essential drugs at affordable prices. The turnover of Indian Pharmaceutical is over $30 billion in 2015 including $15 billion in exports.  It was a great honor to preside the 67th Indian pharmaceutical congress held in Mysore. The topic of Pharmacists for a Healthy India is close to my heart and being a regulator myself, I feel that the Pharmacy fraternity can play a much larger role in contributing to the healthcare system in India. Pharmacist as such are involved in a big way in the regulation of drugs, be it manufacture, be it sale or research and development. A contribution of the Pharmacists is there at every stage till the drug reaches the consumer safely. For this purpose, the society needs a pool of well qualified and experienced pharmacists, which requires regular updating of their knowledge to keep pace with the developments taking place in the pharmaceutical sector. The advancements in technology and the emerging challenges in the health sector require pharmacists to shoulder the responsibilities towards the utilization of scientific knowledge in the use of modern medicines and the protection of the public against dangers of wrong use of drugs. The Pharmacy Council of India on its part will have to ensure that the courses offered for creating a high technology based are calibrated in such a way that the education and skills developed suit to the requirements of the Pharmaceutical Industry as well as needs to the patients

This chapter examines independent distribution and how it is treated under EU competition law. Since the 1960s, it is acknowledged that vertical agreements can entail restrictions of competition—generally called ‘vertical restraints’—which deserve competition law scrutiny. While the early case law and Regulations adopted in the field focused primarily on restrictions of intra-brand competition, a more liberal and economic approach was introduced with the promulgation of Regulation 2790/1999. The new legal framework rested on a basic economic premise: the ability of a vertical agreement to produce anticompetitive effects hinges predominantly on the market power of the parties to the agreement. With the expiry of Regulation 2790/1999 on 31 May 2010, but also with the growth of large retailers throughout Europe and the rise of internet distribution, the Commission initiated a review process in July 2009 which culminated in the adoption of Regulation 330/2010 and of a new set of Guidelines.
