Analgesics are the pain killers that are used to treat mild or severe pain, including musculoskeletal pain, surgical, trauma pain, cancer pain, or another type of pain. Examples of analgesics include codeine, hydrocodone, oxycodone, and methadone. The different types of analgesics are non-opioids and opioids. Non-opioid analgesics are pain relievers available over-the-counter (OTC) and by prescription. They are rapidly being promoted as a desirable, safe, and productive first-line therapeutic alternative to opioid drugs in a range of clinical settings for mild to severe acute and chronic pain. The different types of drugs include prescription analgesics, and OTC analgesics and involve various routes of administration, such as oral, intravenous, rectal, transdermal, and topical. It is used in internal analgesics, and external analgesics and distributed through various channels, such as hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and drug stores. The analgesics market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides analgesics market statistics, including analgesics industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with an analgesics market share, detailed analgesics market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the analgesics industry. This analgesics market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global analgesics market size will grow from $111.15 billion in 2022 to $115.13 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.6%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global analgesics market size is expected to grow to $127.80 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 2.6%. A significant rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases is driving the analgesics Market. Analgesic drugs, also known as painkillers, are used to treat and reduce chronic or severe pain in the body resulting from various medical conditions. For instance, in September 2022, according to a report shared by WHO, a Switzerland-based health organization, chronic diseases which is sometimes referred to as noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), are conditions that develop over an extended period of time as a result of a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental, and behavioural variables. Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) account for 41 million annual fatalities, or 74% of all fatalities worldwide. Before the age of 70, 17 million individuals per year pass away from an NCD. These untimely deaths account for 86% of the deaths in low- and middle-income nations. 77% of NCD-related deaths occur in low- and middle-income nations. Therefore, significant rise in the prevalence of chronic disease is driving the growth of the analgesics market. The growth of the analgesics market is restricted by the increasing use of biologics for the treatment of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. Biologics are drugs produced from living organisms and include several components derived from humans, animals, or microorganisms. These drugs may contain protein, modified human hormones, or cells that produce substances that suppress or activate parts of the immune system. Biologics can provide greater efficacy compared to analgesics, which provide effective pain relief to only 50% of the patients, and is thus widely used nowadays. Rising demand for biologics can adversely impact the growth of the Analgesics market. For instance, Pfizer and Lilly were granted approval by the FDA for developing Tanezumab, a biologics medicine. Companies in the analgesics market are increasingly focusing on acquisition as a strategy for growth. Leading analgesic drug manufacturers are acquiring smaller companies to gain a competitive advantage and strengthen their market position.

Generic pharmaceuticals refer to a drug that was developed to have the same dosage form, safety, strength, mode of administration, quality, performance attributes, and intended use as an already marketed brand-name drug. The action and clinical benefits of a generic drug are identical to those of a brand-name drug. The three main types of generic pharmaceuticals are biosimilar; simple generic, and super generic. A biosimilar is a biological product that is very similar to a reference biologic and has no clinically significant differences in terms of safety, purity, or potency. The drugs are delivered through oral, injectable, dermal/topical, and inhalers that are used for various therapies such as CNS, cardiovascular, dermatology, genitourinary/hormonal, respiratory, rheumatology, diabetes, and oncology. The various distribution channels involved is hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies. The generic pharmaceuticals market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides generic pharmaceuticals market statistics, including generic pharmaceuticals industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a generic pharmaceuticals market share, detailed generic pharmaceuticals market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the generic pharmaceuticals industry. This generic pharmaceuticals market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry. The global generic pharmaceuticals market grew from $332.43 billion in 2022 to $358.5 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The generic pharmaceuticals market is expected to grow from $453.19 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.0%. The rising incidence of chronic diseases is one of the major drivers of the generic pharmaceutical market. As more individuals are diagnosed with chronic diseases, they look for more medicines for treatment. Branded drugs come at a premium price, while generic drugs are available at a lower cost and have the same chemical composition as branded drugs. The low cost and same chemical composition and strength of generic drugs make a patient buy generic drugs instead of branded drugs. If it is a chronic disease, the treatment goes on for a longer period, and hence, the sales of generic drugs also increase. For instance, according to the WHO (World Health Organization), over the next 10 years, the number of deaths due to chronic disease is projected to increase by 17%. Also, in 2020, almost 3-quarters of all deaths in the world are due to chronic diseases. The lack of awareness about generic drugs is one of the restraints on the generic pharmaceutical market. The high marketing and advertisement of branded drugs overshadow the availability of generic drugs, which are a substitute for expensive branded drugs. Thus, consumers opt for branded drugs even though the generic drugs carry the same chemical formulation as their counter-branded drugs. According to an article published on CVS HEALTH, many doctors and pharmacists preferred to offer branded drugs to their patients over generic drugs. This prevents the patients to go for generic drugs as they develop a preconceived notion of generic drugs not being at par with branded drugs. For example, according to research conducted by Sahana K Hebbar, in the International Journal of Basic & Clinical Pharmacology, out of 100 patients and 50 non-medical staff, 95% of the patients and 60% of the non-medical staff didn't know about generic drugs. Thus, a lack of awareness about the availability of generic drugs hampers the generic pharmaceutical market. 3D printing technology can transform the manufacturing of drugs in the generic pharmaceutical market. 3D printed pharmaceuticals help improve R&D productivity and deliver new benefits to patients. 3D printing allows the manufacturer to produce drugs with customised size, shape, and texture, which is not possible in traditional manufacturing of generic drugs. 3D printing can help the manufacturer to make generic drugs that have different release dates, appearances, and tastes. For example, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) completed a study where ultraviolet (UV) and 3D printing were used to manufacture tablets to treat Parkinson's disease. Martin Wallace, director of GSK Technology, said that GSK is investing in 3D printing to manufacture pills and tablets. Also, Aprecia pharmaceutical company launched 'ZipDose' technology, which manufactures 3D printed drugs. The drug manufacturers must comply with the CGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) regulations that come under the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) which includes generic pharmaceuticals. The CGMP regulations require manufacturers to maintain a minimum quality standard for the methods, controls, and facilities used in the manufacturing, packaging, and processing of drug products. Part- 99 of chapter 1 under title 21-Food And Drugs of CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) contains subparts from A to H. The whole part-99 describes the guidelines that need to be followed by drug manufacturers regarding the dissemination of information on human drugs, including biologics, and devices. The guidelines concern the safety, effectiveness, or benefit of use that is not included in the approved labelling for a drug or device approved by the Food and Drug Administration for marketing. The guidelines regulate the information regarding the drugs that should be delivered to the health care practitioner, pharmacy benefit manager, health insurance issuer, group health plan, or federal or state government agency.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) or bowel cancer, is a type of cancer affecting the large intestine and the rectum. Depending on where they begin, they are also known as colon tumours or rectal cancer. The main types of colorectal cancer drugs are vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors, and programmed cell death protein 1/PD1 ligand 1 (PD1/PDL1) inhibitors, BRAF or MEK inhibitors, tyrosine kinase (TKI) inhibitors, and immunomodulators. Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) are drugs that block VEGF and VEGFR activity. The various classes of drugs include immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and others that are distributed by hospitals pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and others. The colorectal cancer drugs market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides colorectal cancer drugs market statistics, including colorectal cancer drugs industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a colorectal cancer drugs market share, detailed colorectal cancer drugs market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the colorectal cancer drugs industry. This colorectal cancer drugs market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global colorectal cancer drugs market size will grow from $13.65 billion in 2022 to $14.21 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global colorectal cancer drugs market size is expected to grow to $16.22 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 3.3%. The number of cases of colorectal cancer worldwide has been increasing. For instance, in March 2020, according to research published in ACS Publications, a US-based scientific journal, based on data from the National Center for Health Statistics, a total of 147,950 people would be diagnosed with CRC, and 53,200 would pass away from it. 17,930 of these cases and fatalities will be in people under the age of 50. The number of diagnosed incident cases of colorectal cancer is expected to increase by 27.3% to 672,400 cases by 2037. The reason for this increase can be attributed to factors such as a low-fiber diet, obesity, and consumption of alcohol and tobacco, among others. The increase in the number of colorectal cancer cases will add to the overall size of the global colorectal cancer drug market. The increasing use of biologics and targeted therapies restrains the bladder cancer drugs market. Biologic therapy uses a body’s immune system to fight cancer rather than chemical drugs which reduces the body’s immune power. Targeted therapies block the growth and spreading of colorectal cancer even in stage IV where chemical drugs are ineffective. For example, some targeted therapies that have been approved to treat colorectal cancer include bevacizumab, cetuximab, and panitumumab. The advantages of biological drugs and targeted therapies over conventional chemical drugs might negatively influence the market. Targeted therapies have already begun to extend the lifespan of metastatic Colorectal cancer patients compared with chemotherapy-only therapy. Target therapy includes hormone therapies, gene expression modulators, apoptosis inducers, angiogenesis inhibitors, immunotherapies, signal transduction inhibitors, and toxin delivery molecules. Targeted therapy is attaining importance due to its specificity toward cancer cells while sparing the toxicity to off-target cells. Opdivo and Keytruda are examples of targeted therapies. The colorectal cancer industry is governed by a regulatory framework laid down by agencies such as the US Food and Administration Agency (FDA), the European Medicines Agency (EMA), the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), and others. For instance, the FDA's recommendation for the colorectal cancer drugs industry in the form of guidelines is mentioned within the CFR's (Code for Federal Regulations) title number 21 under part 312, which contains sub-parts from A to me. The sub-part E deals with the procedures designed to push the development, evaluation, and marketing of drugs related to therapies aimed to treat persons with life-threatening illnesses such as colorectal cancer. It also includes guidelines for the monitoring and evaluation of clinical trials of colorectal cancer drugs and other cancer drugs by agency officials to determine whether new treatments are safe and effective, or better than existing treatments.

The global plasma therapy market grew from $0.4 billion in 2022 to $0.44 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.3%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The plasma therapy market is expected to grow from $0.69 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 11.7%. The rising prevalence of osteoarthritis is expected to drive the plasma therapy market during the forecast period. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a type of plasma therapy, is considered a safe and efficient treatment for osteoarthritis. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrated autologous blood growth factor that is injected into the joint to provide symptomatic relief by decreasing inflammation and slowing the progression of osteoarthritis. For instance, in July 2020, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 32.5 million people in the USA will be suffering from osteoarthritis. Some of the most commonly used treatments for osteoarthritis are autologous chondrocyte implantation and scaffold implants. Therefore, an increase in the prevalence of osteoarthritis is expected to drive the plasma therapy market. The high cost of plasma therapy is expected to hinder the market. The major reason contributing to the high cost is due to extraction and storage. Plasmapheresis is the process of separating plasma and blood cells from blood.The cost of plasmapheresis is approximately $5,000 to $10,000 in the United States. Average platelet-rich plasma orthopaedic treatment costs range from $350 to $1,050 for a single sitting, and it may require 2 to 3 settings for the treatment to be effective. The high cost of plasma therapy hinders many patients from accessing the treatment, thereby impacting the market negatively. Convalescent plasma therapy, to treat patients suffering from COVID-19, is a leading trend in the plasma therapy market. Convalescent plasma is the plasma extracted from individuals who have been cured of a particular viral infection, as they have antibodies that protect and make them immune to that particular organism. The convalescent plasma is transfused to the patient who is suffering from the viral infection to neutralise the infection and induce an active immune response to cure the infection. Convalescent plasma therapy is found to be a safe treatment to cure patients infected with the coronavirus. Moreover, this therapy was used to treat other viral infections such as Ebola, Dengue, and SARS-1 but did not give the desired results. In March 2020, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited has initiated a plasma therapy, Anti-SARS-CoV-2 polyclonal hyperimmune globulin (H-IG), which is termed TAK-888 for treating COVID-19. The TAK-888 utilises the plasma collected from convalescent donors who have been cured of COVID-19 and is administered to the patient suffering from COVID-19. Major players in the plasma therapy market are Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, Bio Products Laboratory Ltd., Arthrex, Inc., Biotest AG, China Biologic Products Holdings, Inc., DePuy Synthes Companies, CSL Limited, Grifols, S.A., Octapharma, and Terumo BCT Inc.

The dermatology drugs market consists of sales of dermatology drugs by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that produce dermatology drugs to treat skin diseases. This industry includes establishments that produce drugs to treat diseases such as rosacea, dermatitis, hyperhidrosis, androgenic alopecia, acne drugs, microbial infections and other skin disorders. The main types of dermatology drugs are acne drugs, dermatitis, psoriasis, and other drugs for dermatology diseases. Psoriasis is a skin condition that causes red, itchy scaly patches on the knees, elbows, trunk, and scalp. Hypolipidemic drugs are a diverse class of medications used to treat high levels of fats (lipids) in the blood, such as cholesterol (hyperlipidemia). The drugs are administered through oral, parenteral, and others that are classified into branded and generic drugs. The various mode of purchase includes prescription-based drugs and over-the-counter drugs which are distributed by hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies/ drug stores, and others. The global dermatology drugs market size is expected to grow from $49.55 billion in 2021 to $54.54 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.1%. The growth in the market is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The dermatology drugs market is expected to reach $117.82 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 21.2%. The dermatology drugs market was mainly driven by rapid growth in emerging markets in the historic period. Emerging markets growth was aided by rising disposable income, stable political environment and increasing foreign investments in these countries. For instance, according to the IMF, China’s GDP growth rate was 2.3% in 2020. Additionally, according to the World Economic Outlook Reports by the IMF, the global growth is 6% in 2021 and expected to be 4.4% in 2022. Thus, strong economic growth boosted the demand for dermatology drugs and this drove the market during the historic period. High costs associated with drugs is a major issue faced by citizens of many countries. Pressure to contain costs and demonstrate value is widespread. Political uncertainty and persistent economic stress in numerous countries are calling into question the sustainability of public health care funding. In less wealthy countries, lack of cost-effective drugs has influenced the health conditions of the population and has led to a low average life expectancy. As a result, in countries such as Chad, Macedonia, Serbia, the pharmaceutical companies are faced with the pressure of reducing the price of drugs. The high costs associated with drugs are putting pressure on the revenues of dermatology drugs manufacturers. Drug manufacturing companies are using genome testing (genetic diagnosis) to reduce the time and costs spent in clinical trials. A clinical trial is a complex process and it often takes months for a drug to be available in the market. This deprives patients of cost-effective treatment. Researchers in the Rockefeller University used genomic testing and data analytics to predict the response of psoriasis patients for a given treatment. Genomic testing algorithms collect gene-expression data from skin biopsies and detect activity in 50,000 different genes. This technique can predict the response of a patient with an accuracy of 95% and within 12 weeks, thus saving significant time for clinical trials and the launch of new drugs.
