Global Branded Generics Market is valued at approximately USD 432.30 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 14.66% over the forecast period 2024-2032. Branded generics are medications bioequivalent to original innovator drugs and are marketed under a different brand name by another company post-patent expiration. These drugs, formulated using the same active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) as the innovator product, must meet similar regulatory requirements for manufacturing, safety, and efficacy standards. The primary growth drivers for the branded generics market include rising consumer awareness of accessible treatment options, increasing healthcare expenditure, and numerous patent expirations on blockbuster drugs.
Furthermore, the significant adoption of value-added branded generics, due to their additional benefits such as combined multiple active ingredients or innovative dosage forms, is driving market growth. For example, Benitek A (Olmesatran in combination with Amlodipine), Nifedical (nifedipine), and Digitek (digoxin) are some value-added products designed to enhance therapeutic effects or reduce side effects. However, the market faces challenges such as stringent regulatory requirements for drug approval and quality control, as well as price erosion due to intense competition among manufacturers.
The route of administration plays a crucial role in the market dynamics, with oral administration being the most common and preferred method due to its convenience and non-invasive nature. Parenteral and topical routes are also significant, particularly for drugs that require quick relief or localized delivery. The indication segment reveals a burgeoning utilization of branded generics for gastrointestinal and neurological diseases, with increasing demand for cost-effective therapies in these areas.
The key regions considered for the global Branded Generics Market study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Rest of the World. North America is a dominating region in the Branded Generics Market in terms of revenue. The market growth in the region is being attributed to factors including robust healthcare infrastructure and high per capita spending on pharmaceuticals. Also, increasing healthcare expenditure and favorable pricing policies drive market demand. Whereas, the market in Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate over the forecast period fueled by rising R&D activities, supportive government initiatives, and increasing demand for trade generics.
