This article analyzes the effectiveness of the English for Specific Purposes (ESP) methodology in developing the professional English competence of pharmacy students. The relevance of the research is determined by the globalization of the pharmaceutical industry and the transition to international standards such as GMP and GLP. The paper highlights the role of needs analysis, the use of authentic materials, and communicative teaching methods. The results indicate that, compared to traditional grammar-based approaches, situational case studies and terminological systematization significantly improve students' skills in drug production, quality control, and patient communication. The article concludes with practical recommendations for improving curricula in pharmaceutical higher education institutions.
