t is very known that the availability of drugs is the major problem faced by patients.
Therefore, this article deals with the optimization of a pharmaceutical supply chain, i.e. we
need to reorganize the entire current pharmaceutical network with a main objective of no
patient suffers as long as the medicine exists somewhere. Achieving this requires a strategic
organization of the geographic network in order to gain a better distribution. It is based on the
information that must be received after a general study on the entire health sector in a specific
area. The problem is formulated in a nonlinear model (MINLP) and in order to solve it we
resort to using optimization solvers to show the effectiveness of this approach
