Resumo: | Considering the low competitivity of the pharmaceutical industry in Brazil, the study analyzed the potential of the phytomedicines as a strategic niche for the national technological development in this area. Within this context, it was essential the understanding about the importance of innovation in phytomedicines in Brazil and the analyses of the therapeutical and market potential of these drugs. The research involved an extensive survey of information focused in the economical and industrial issues of the pharmaceutical industry, of the herbal medicines (composed exclusively of parts of plants or its derivatives) and of the phytodrugs (isolated from plants and used as an active principle or as template for drugs). Therefore, the study was developed considering the national and international literature and the existing legislation. In spite of some difficulties like the fulfillment of the quality and safety standards required by the legislation and the necessity of a higher interaction between the professionals of the sector and between the financing, research and production institutions, the study showed that the phytomedicines are a strategic niche for the local technological capacitation and for a smaller dependence in the elaboration of drugs policies, recommending actions for the development of this niche in the country. |

Dentro deste contexto, foi fundamental o entendimento sobre a importância da inovação em fitomedicamentos no Brasil e a análise do potencial terapêutico e de mercado destes medicamentos. A pesquisa envolveu um amplo levantamento de informações com foco na questão econômica e industrial da área farmacêutica, dos fitoterápicos (constituídos exclusivamente de partes de plantas ou derivados vegetais) e dos fitofármacos (isolados de plantas e utilizados como fármacos ou como fonte de modelos para fármacos). Para tanto, o trabalho foi desenvolvido com base na literatura nacional e internacional e na legislação existente. Apesar de algumas dificuldades identificadas como o cumprimento dos padrões de qualidade e segurança exigidos pela legislação e a necessidade de uma maior articulação entre os profissionais da área e entre as instituições de financiamento, pesquisa e produção, o estudo mostrou que os fitomedicamentos são um nicho estratégico para a capacitação tecnológica local e para uma maior autonomia na elaboração de uma política de medicamentos, propondo ações para o desenvolvimento deste nicho no País.Centro de Inovação em Biodiversidade e Saúde - Farmanguinhos/Fiocruz2005-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttp://revistafitos.far.fiocruz.br/index.php/revista-fitos/article/view/17510.32712/2446-4775.2005.175Revista Fitos; v. 1 n. 01 (2005); 18-292446-47751808-9569reponame:Revista Fitosinstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz)instacron:FIOCRUZporhttp://revistafitos.far.fiocruz.br/index.php/revista-fitos/article/view/175/164http://revistafitos.far.fiocruz.br/index.php/revista-fitos/article/view/175/1315Copyright (c) 2005 Revista Fitos Eletrônicahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessALVES, F.
