This publication provides a comparative description of the chemical composition of silver speedwell (Veronica incana L.). We chose three different regions of Yakutia as objects of study, namely: Megino-Kangalas District (Central Yakutia); Vilyuisk District (Western Yakutia); Oymyakon District (Eastern Yakutia). The content of certain groups of substances (phenolic compounds, tannins, flavonoids, and phenylpropanoids) in vegetable raw materials was studied. The highest content of all studied compounds was found in the leaves of V. incana L. growing in the Oymyakon District.
