This study aims to determine and analyze how the regulation of legal protection and the implementation of legal protection for consumers and business actors in buying and selling drugs with an online system. The research method uses a sociological juridical approach with analytical descriptive specifications. Using secondary data and primary data obtained from library studies and field studies. The data were analyzed qualitatively and presented systematically and presented in the form of tables and narratives. The results of the study indicate that: (1) The regulation of legal protection for business actors and consumers in buying and selling drugs online is based on the Electronic Information and Transaction Law (UU ITE) and the Government Regulation on the Implementation of Electronic Transaction Systems (PP PSTE), the Consumer Protection Act. (UU PK) and Regulation of the Drug and Food Supervisory Agency Number 8 of 2020 concerning Control of Drugs and Food Circulated Online have provided legal protection to consumers and business actors, but the implementation has not been optimal, so there are still business actors who violate the provisions of the regulation. (2) The implementation of legal protection related to the process of buying and selling drugs online, both preventively and repressively, has not been maximally carried out, this can be seen from the increasing number of business actors selling illegal and counterfeit drugs online. The BBPOM of the City of Surabaya in collaboration with the Surabaya City Health Service and the Indonesian National Police (POLRI), needs to improve supervision, guidance, investigation, and investigation as well as monitoring and evaluating the implementation of online drug trading. Abstrak: Proses Jual beli obat secara online memiliki resiko dan dampak-dampak negatif yang dapat membahayakan masyarakat.
