Personal life
Golikova is married to Viktor Khristenko, the former Minister of Industry and Trade. They married in 2003. She has earned the nickname "Miss Budget". She has received various awards including, "For Services to the Motherland" in the 2nd Degree (2001), "For Services to the Motherland" in the 1st Degree (2004), the Order of Honour (February 2006), and the Order of Friendship (November 2006).
Corruption allegations
Golikova has been widely accused of corruption by several Russian media, mainly for her alleged connections to the Pharmstandard, which is producer of the heavily-hyped drug Arbidol. After these allegations she was nicknamed "Madam Arbidol".[2] Golikova widely accused of corruption in connection with making codeine-containing drugs 'over the counter'. In reality codeine-containing drugs became readily accessible after the order of Golikova's perdecessor Zurabov in 2005[3]. Major profiteer from this decision was Pharmstandard. The epidemic of the use of the codeine derivative 'krocodile' (desomorphine) by opioid-dependend drug users had developed in Russia.[4] Golikova faced the all-national campaign, and had made the codeine-containing drugs prescription only in 2011[5].
