In this report, we present recommendations and supporting case studies for pharmaceutical procurers in European healthcare on how to include sustainability criteria in medicine purchasing.

Procuring for greener pharma builds on the experience of Nordic countries that have implemented sustainability criteria in pharmaceutical procurement.
