The development of new effective medicines based on propolis, royal jelly, pollen, honey continues to be one of the topical areas of pharmacology and pharmacy.
The versatile biopharmacological properties of beekeeping products give rise to widespread use in the treatment and prevention of a wide range of diseases in humans and animals, when used both in pure form and in combination with other biologically active substances.
On the basis of beekeeping products, a number of biologically active additives have been created, which are widely used in medical practice in many countries of the world.
Veterinary medicine also uses a significant arsenal of drugs. They belong to different pharmacological groups, exerting a versatile effect on the animal organism and have appropriate indications for use.

In medicine and veterinary medicine, propolis is used primarily in surgery, dermatology, otorhinolaryngology, pediatrics and dentistry.
