YEREVAN, November 17. /ARKA/. Not only meat and butter prices have surged in Armenia, but also prices for medicaments, Zhoghovurd reports referring to the National Statistical Service. nbsp;br

According to the newspaper, prices at the country’s medicaments market have risen 2.1% since the beginning of this year with a 0.1-percent increase in October alone.nbsp;br

The authors of the publication think that the price hike was due to the dram-euro exchange rate, since the bulk of drugs are imported from European countries. nbsp;nbsp;br
