Medicines control regime
In Shapovalova's framework, the medicines control regime relates clinical-pharmacological, classification-legal and nomenclature-legal categories. In English, the relationship is: control regime = clinical-pharmacological group + classification-legal group + nomenclature-legal group. The original formula is retained for source identification: РК = КФГ + КПГ + НПГ. Here the formula is a conceptual organizing device, not a numerical calculation. The nomenclature-legal dimension concerns dispensing status, including prescription and non-prescription supply.[1]
For a non-specialist reader, the important lesson is to avoid answering a legal question with a pharmacological label alone. The same clinical purpose does not necessarily imply the same legal controls. Conversely, a legal supply category does not by itself establish that a medicine is appropriate for a particular patient.
Historical caution: examples and regulatory lists in older publications describe their source period. They should not be copied into the wiki as an up-to-date dispensing guide.
