The Indian Pharmaceutical Market Except from the PharmaHandbook™
The Indian pharmaceutical market is the world’s fourth largest by volume (8% of global total) and thirteenth largest by value (less than 1% of global total). Although prices are the lowest in the world, 70% of the population does not have access to drug therapy and 2002 per capita consumption was only $3.33. The lack of pharmaceutical patents means that there is an average of 200 brands for every molecule on the market.
This except from the PharmaHandbook™ 2004 Edition covers the following topics:
- Patent Protection
- R&D / Clinical Trials
- Generics
- Marketing
