Generic Drugs Market

Generic Drugs Market: Wide Application Area to
Propel Demand By 2026
Generic drugs refers to medication that have the same active ingredient as that of a branded
drugs. These drugs also yield the same therapeutic effect and are prescribed in the same dosing,
with the same quality, and same the way of consumption and usage. However, the inactive
ingredients of generic drugs can differ as compared to their branded counter parts. These drugs
are mainly marketed after a patent expiry of a branded drug and are significantly lower in
costs as compared to the patented branded drugs. Generic drugs are of equivalent quality as
compared to the branded drugs and are manufactured under the same safety and manufacturing
procedures. Various manufacturers submit an abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) to the
FDA after the completion of period of patent exclusivity.

Patent expiry of branded drugs is a factor expected to boost growth of the global generic drugs
market:
Manufacturers of generic drugs are focusing on development and introduction of various
innovative medication and formulation such as biosimilars. According to IMS Health data,
generic drugs accounted for over 80% of the prescriptions dispensed in the U.S. in 2013. The
number of patents expiring in the near future serves to be a major driver for growth of generic
drugs market. For instance, Cetuximab (Erbitux) is an epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor
that is indicated in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer and head and neck cancer. It
is manufactured under the patent by Bristol-Myers Squibb and Eli Lily Company in Europe. The
drug’s patent expires in 2018 and thus, is expected to provide opportunity for a large number
of market players to manufacture its generic version. Furthermore, supportive initiative by FDA
to promote development of biosimilars is encouraging manufacturers to focus towards its
development. For instance, the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act in the U.S. gr
ants 12 months patent exclusivity with higher profit margins to the first manufacturer than the
conventional generic manufacturers bringing the drugs in market later. Various other factors
contributing to growth of generic drugs market include rampant growth in incidence of chronic
diseases. However, shortage of active pharmaceutical ingredients leading to unavailability of
generics in the market and increasing FDA pressure on manufacturers regarding manufacturing
quality of these drugs are hindering the market growth.
Asia Pacific to gain significant traction in the global generic drugs market owing to increasing
number of local players:
On the basis of region, the global generic drugs market is segmented into North
America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. North America
held a dominant position in the global generic drugs market in 2016. This is attributed
to favorable regulatory policies that are revised and amended to encourage generic drugs
business in the region. For instance, Generic Drug User Fee Amendment (GDFUA) was
reauthorized in 2017 after its initiation in 2012 by FDA for increasing consumer access
to high quality, safe, and affordable drugs. On the other hand, Asia Pacific is expected
to show a significant traction in the market over the forecast period. This is attributed
to lower manufacturing costs and high skilled workforce in the Asian countries.
According to India Brand Equity Foundation, India has the second largest number of
U.S. FDA manufacturing plants outside the U.S. that are involved in generic drugs
manufacturing. Additionally, the cost of manufacturing is 33% lower in India than that
in the U.S., increasing accessibility to generics in these countries.
