The inspections of the pharmaceutical inspectors are authorized un-der the codified legislation of July 2, 2004, which addresses freedom of economic activity in commercial sales, and legislation of September 5, 2001 i.e. pharmaceutical regulations. The article considers the above described issue in the following contexts:- public health in the region – the voivodship pharmaceutical inspectorate; and- business people operating pharmacies – pharmaceutical inspectors.
