1) pharmaceutical industry organizations: pharmaceutical industry associations and pharmaceutical societies. In the late Middle Ages, pharmaceutical trade associations appeared in many European countries. Their main activities are to safeguard the interests of drugstore owners and pharmacists, adjust conflicts with pharmacists and perfumers, and carry out education to train pharmaceutical technicians. With the development of social economy, the nature and function of trade associations have changed greatly. First of all, these local guilds have gradually become national organizations. For example, the London Pharmacists Association, founded in 16 17, became the British Pharmaceutical Association (Royal Society) in 184 1, and the American Pharmaceutical Association (APHA) was founded in 1852. The American Pharmaceutical Association has branches on all continents, and its activities cover almost all aspects of pharmaceutical industry, pharmaceutical business, pharmaceutical education and pharmaceutical academic activities, as well as formulating drug standards and ethical standards for pharmacists and making suggestions to the government on formulating relevant medical regulations. It has greatly promoted American pharmacy. At present, there are more than 20 national pharmaceutical associations in the United States. Through the "Representative House" of the American Pharmaceutical Association and the national pharmaceutical trade seminar, issues related to drug production, wholesale sales, drug distribution, pharmaceutical education, drug regulations and drug quality are discussed. They have become the authoritative non-governmental organizations of the government in all aspects of pharmacy and play an important role in the cause of pharmacy.

2) National government drug administration agencies: Most governments adopt drug administration legislation, and authorize national health administrative departments to set up powerful drug administration agencies to strictly supervise and manage drug quality to ensure the safety and effectiveness of people's drug use. For example, the Food and Drug Administration under the US Department of Health and Human Services; The British Ministry of Health and Social Insurance has a Drug Administration; Japan's Ministry of Health and Welfare has a drug bureau; Soviet Ministry of Health, Drug Administration Inspection Bureau. The state drug administration department, according to the power granted by the state authority or the state law; On behalf of the state, supervise and manage the quality of drug development, production, circulation and use.

(2) Management system: The World Health Organization has adopted "GMP", which is recommended by all countries. It also actively promotes the drug quality certificate system. With the implementation of the international drug quality supervision and management system, drug management institutions in various countries have also been strengthened. Pharmaceutical production, management and system, pharmaceutical production and management enterprises in socialist countries belong to public ownership. For example, in the Soviet Union, the planned economy was dominant, and drug production was controlled by the plan. Products are purchased by the Ministry of Health and distributed to pharmacies. The Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union set up the Ministry of Pharmaceutical Industry, which directly administered 16 state joint enterprises, implemented unified leadership, unified economic accounting, and handed in profits to the state.

Pharmaceutical factories and pharmacies in capitalist countries are privately owned. There is no administrative organization for drug production and management in the country. Most drug businesses in these countries have sales systems and distribution channels independent of the pharmaceutical industry. For example, wholesale companies in Sweden, professional wholesalers in Japan and sales centers in West Germany. These are also companies owned by capitalists.
