According to our latest research study on “Generic Injectables Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis – by Product Type, Container Type, Application, and Route of Administration,” the generic injectables market size is projected to reach US$ 150.65 billion by 2028 from US$ 74.74 billion in 2021; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% from 2021 to 2028. The report highlights trends prevailing in the market and factors governing the growth of the market.
Generic injectables are counterparts of branded injectables that are not protected by drug patents. They are as effective and safe as the innovator drugs since they have equivalent quality, active ingredients, strength, dosage, form, etc. The R&D cycle of generic injectables is shorter and cheaper. Generic injectable manufacturers do not require much investment in R&D and clinical trials. The generic injectables market growth is attributed to low R&D, marketing, and manufacturing costs, and the rising prevalence of chronic illness cases are expected to drive the growth of the market. However, critical inspection systems for prefilled injection and supply chain- related challenges may hinder the growth of market growth.
Increasing Patent Expiry of Branded Injectables Creating Opportunities for Generic Injectables Market Players:
The patents of branded injectables in several regions are likely to expire in the upcoming years, offering numerous remunerative opportunities to the generic injectables manufacturers. As per a recent publication by Business Standard, patented drugs worth US$ 240 billion will lose patents globally over the coming years. In India, the shortage of branded medicines and the expiry of branded drug patents have prompted generic injectable’s manufacturers to introduce advanced drug delivery systems, including self-injection devices. Biological E Limited, an Indian biotechnology and biopharmaceutical company based in Hyderabad, Telangana, is gaining recognition for broadening its portfolio with the addition of 20 routine and injectable products. Thus, generic injectables companies are tapping regulated markets and exploring other markets to generate incomes and establish stable revenue streams. Additionally, manufacturers in the generic injectables market are becoming future-ready by maintaining adequate supply chains to prevent vulnerabilities, such as those caused by the COVID-19 outbreak. Zydus Cadila is significantly reducing the price of its generic version of Remdesivir, namely Remdac. Thus, the nearing expiry of patent validity of branded injectables is likely to provide significant opportunities to generic injectables manufacturers.
