MCP Pharma Overview
The mcp-pharma MCP server connects AI clients to Russian government drug-reference data from the GRLS, VEDL price registry, and Roszdravnadzor quality-control letters. It provides tools for searching medicines, checking registration records, retrieving regulated ceiling prices, and finding series-related recall letters. Run it through `uvx` or `pipx` as an MCP stdio server, with an API key for the hosted backend. Use it for registry lookups and regulatory reference checks, not for medical advice or instructions, since instruction text is unavailable.
Primary Use Cases for MCP Pharma:
- Search Russian medicines by trade name or MNN
- Check registration status and authorization-holder details
- Look up VEDL maximum prices
- Find Roszdravnadzor letters for a product series
