When you see your doctor, they will prescribe a brand-name drug. When you bring the prescription to the pharmacy, they inform you that the medication is also available in generic form. Which one would you select? Branded medications or generic drugs?
Pharmaceutical businesses manufacture and market branded drugs under their names. Additionally, after a branded product's patent expires, generic medications are produced. This permits other producers to produce the same or comparable medications under other brand names. Not sure yet? Well, in this blog, let’s discuss what branded generic is, the branded generics market insights, and its growth drivers.
A generic medication that has completed the ANDA procedure and been given a name other than its chemical name is known as a branded generic. Following the expiration of their patents, the original manufacturers or a generic drug business may generate these branded generic medications. A branded generic name is the property of the business producing or marketing it. It needs to be bioequivalent to goods under the original brand. While branded generics cost more than original brands, they are less expensive than standard generics.
The global branded generics market was valued at USD 239.85 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow to USD 410.86 billion at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period of 2032.
The introduction of generic drugs and high ANDA approval rates are key drivers of the growth of the branded generics market in the pharmaceutical sector. According to the FDA's annual report, there was an increase in the number of first generics approved in 2021, 93 versus 72 in 2020. It is noteworthy, therefore, that the total amount of ANDA approvals dropped from 1,014 in 2019 to around 948 in 2020 and then to 776 in 2021.
Also, the trend of ANDA approvals for generic medications is declining, which could limit the expansion of the business. Less approvals translate into fewer generic medications on the market, which may drive up costs for consumers and restrict their access to reasonably priced medical treatment.
