PHARMACEUTICAL LOGISTICS AS A NEW PARADIGM IN THE SYSTEM OF SPECIALIZED PHARMACEUTICAL CARE FOR CANCER PATIENTS

In these conditions, the usual «efficiency – safety» coordinate system is not enough. The inclusion of the concept of pharmaceutical logistics in the pharmaceutical lexicon is an urgent need.
