However, there was an unusual demand for Remdesivir, an antiviral medicine used to treat patients, when the outbreak was at its peak. Thus, manufacturers in the generic injectables market are now prepared for the future as they focus on keeping adequate stock for keeping supply chain operations unaffected dur to any type of vulnerabilities. Gilead Sciences and other big pharma companies, for example, have reduced the prices of their generic versions of remdesivir considerably. Companies are utilizing government programs and financing schemes offered by the BFSI industries to streamline their operations. In May 2020, the US government entered into an agreement, worth US$ 812 million, with a group of American generic medicine manufacturers, with the goal of bolstering the country's drug supply amid the global COVID-19 pandemic.

Furthermore, the pandemic strained pharmaceutical industries globally, interrupting and delaying supply of various critical drugs. Many market players came to rescue with immediate actions. For instance, in January 2021, Civica Rx teamed up with the brand-new Phlow Corp. in an effort to support drug manufacturing in the US and supply critical medications to hospitals fighting the pandemic. Civica invested US$ 124.5 million in the construction of a sterile injectable manufacturing facility in Petersburg, Virginia, which rose to prominence last year owing to a large government contract to produce COVID-19-related drugs.

Based on region, the generic injectables market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America.

Market Insights
High Demand for Affordable Drugs Drives Generic Injectables Market

Innovator drugs are expensive owing to high investments made in the research & development of molecules; these drugs are specifically unaffordable for a large share of the population in developing countries. However, generic drugs are affordable and provide greater access to healthcare. As published by the Association for Accessible Medicines (AAM), the average primary copay (the amount set by the insurance plans) of a generic drug is US$ 6.06 and US$ 40.30 for branded drugs. This fact indicates the falling prices of generic medicines by at least ~7%. According to the American Association of Retired Person (AARP), branded drug prices continue to increase at a pace that is 100-times greater than inflation. Moreover, as mentioned by the USFDA, 9/10 prescriptions filled in the US are for generic drugs. Additionally, the generic drug’s average manufacturer prices (AMP) are ~39% lower than the branded drug’s AMP. For instance, as published by Association for Accessible Medicines (AAM), 93% of generic prescriptions are filled for US$ 20 or less. The facts mentioned above boost the demand and availability of generic injectables, thus driving the entry of more players into the generic injectables market.

Further, low prices of generic injectables contribute to greater and effective chronic illness treatments.
