Results and Discussion. According to the references the historical background of the formation of the SR PP is revealed. By studying institutional frameworks of SR PP in the international aspect, it is founded that almost one third of countries, professional organizations of which are members of the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP), represented Europe. It is shown that just over half of the UN members by trade unions are member states of FIP, while two-thirds of European UN member states are members of the FIP. Based on a comparative study of the members' structure of the IPF, Pharmaceutical Group of the European Union (PGEU) and the European association of hospital pharmacists (EAHP). In a total it is found that in three investigated associations are presented 94 pharmaceutical organizations from 39 European countries. Herewith, in each pharmaceutical association the members are pharmaceutical societies of two third countries. Only four professional organizations are members of three pharmaceutical associations simultaneously, namely: Pharmaceutical Chamber of Macedonia, Croatian Pharmaceutical Society, Pharmaceutical Society of Bosnia and Herzegovina Federation and Turkish Pharmacists Association. Data for institutional dimension show signi cantly low participation activity of Ukrainian pharmaceutical societies' in the international associations. Herein, on condition of statutory documents' bringing to the requirements of a specic association, is opened their access not only to the FIP (Ukraine is a member of UN and WHO), but also yet PGEU (our state is a member of the European Free Trade Association) and EAHP (Ukraine is a member of the Council of Europe).
Conclusions. The obtained results show different levels of membership in the three international pharmaceutical associations (FIP, PGEU and EAHP) as states, and as well as separate pharmaceutical societies, and extremely low Ukrainian pharmaceutical societies' participation in SR PP in the international aspect.
