The article deals with the study of dynamics of population mortality in the Russian Federation as a result of acute intoxications in 2001-2010. In the Russian Federation, during the examined period, population mortality due to casual acute alcoholic intoxications decreased up to 2.1 times. The most rapid race of mortality decrease occurred in the Central Federal Okrug and the slowest race was established in the Siberian Okrug. The highest population mortality rate as a result of alcoholic intoxications is in the Siberian Okrug and the lowest ones--in the South Okrug. The analysis of mortality rates as a result of chemical intoxications and their dynamics will allow to assess the toxicological situation and to determine the strategic directions of preventive activities in the area of chemical security on the regional level.
