"Abstract: All large armies (EU and/or NATO) have pharmaceutical production facilities to provide the necessary antidotes for the troops and the population: The French Army Medical Directorate produces many military-specific pharmaceutical products in its own laboratory, the Turkish Army owns its own medicines factory, including CBRN antidotes, the US Army, in addition to a sustained drug purchase program in the pharmaceutical industry has launched a new concept: Pharmacy on demand. Providing the armed forces with antidotes is a necessity, the concept for their endowement in this sense can be based on imports (sometimes impossible to achieve) or on the national development of a specialized production structure. The design or construction of a specific production capacity for antidotes can be accomplished on multiple variants, with a complexity proportional to the identified need. The total costs are high, but the objective and implementation of effective antidote supply mechanisms is a security guarantee for the armed forces and the civilian population (through commercialization to allied forces), given the risks of terrorist threats and hybrid warfare. Keywords: medical protection, antidote, production, technological platform, medical countermeasures, pharmaceutical technique, orphan drug production "
