Medicine
Definition
The umbrella category — under the Pharmacy Law as implemented by Decree 163/2025/ND-CP and Circular 18/2026/TT-BYT — for substances and combination products separated from the ordinary medicine regime: addictive substances, psychotropic substances , precursors used in medicine manufacture, and radioactive medicines. The regime runs parallel to the anti-drug-law chain (Law 73/2021/QH14 + Decree 28/2026/ND-CP) and overlays radiation-safety rules under Law 94/2025/QH15 for radioactive medicines.
