Medicines» of different years of publication in period from1999 to 2019 and Compendium.online site as of February 2019. Such research methods of market conditions analysis for vitamin products as generalization, systematization, comparative analysis were used.
 The analysis of the dynamics of the range of vitamin medicines in Ukraine during 1999-2019 was conducted. It was determined that the maximum amount of vitamin products was presented in the pharmaceutical market of Ukraine in 2007 (267 items by trade names), the minimum – in 2016 (119 preparations).
