What Remedium does

Remedium (OOO «GRUPPA REMEDIUM») is a privately held Russian medical and pharmaceutical information group headquartered in Moscow at ul. Bakuninskaya, 71, str. 10, with the company legally registered in 2006. It operates the B2B medical portal remedium.ru and publishes a portfolio of peer-reviewed journals — 'Медицинский совет' (Meditsinskiy Sovet, 23 issues per year), 'Российские аптеки' (Rossiyskie Apteki), 'Амбулаторная хирургия' (Ambulatory Surgery), and 'Атеротромбоз' (Aterotromboz) — alongside book-length monographs, the annual 'Russian Pharmaceutical Market: Year-End Results' analytical report based on IQVIA data, the 'Master Class in Pharmacy' annual compilation (25,000 copies), the 'Doctor's Notes' podcast, webinars, and live events.

The technology stack is a conventional digital publishing platform built on Bitrix CMS with Yandex analytics integration, supporting web content delivery, webinar hosting, and online subscription management; no proprietary AI, APIs, or SDKs are offered. Distribution spans remedium.ru, print and digital journal subscriptions (with a 10% online discount), partner platforms rosapteki.ru and med-sovet.pro, Yandex Music for podcasts, and VKontakte for community engagement.

Remedium monetizes through five streams: recurring journal subscriptions (print and digital), one-time book and monograph sales, advertising and sponsorships from pharmaceutical and medical device companies, paid events and webinars, and recurring market analytics subscriptions. The customer base is fragmented across practicing physicians, pharmacists and provisors, and pharmaceutical industry professionals — all within the Russian Federation, with no stated international footprint. Ownership is private and undisclosed beyond the LLC structure, with no venture or private equity involvement evidenced.
