Abstract

The study aims to analyze how the economic and financial indicators of pharmaceutical entities are influenced by the discounts granted by distributors of pharmaceuticals. The work is based on the analysis of economic and financial performance indicators accomplished by a community pharmacy in Prahova. Thus, the analyzed discounts, granted by distributors of drugs related to pharmaceutical entities, registered separate values for each distributor and product groups and their share in turnover.
