Australia Pharmaceuticals Market Synopsis

The Australia pharmaceuticals market is one of the most advanced and well-regulated markets in the world. It has grown rapidly over the past decade, driven by a number of factors such as an ageing population, rising healthcare costs, technological advances and government incentives for research & development (R&D) activities. The market is expected to register a CAGR of around 7% over the forecast period 2021???2026.

Drivers of the Market

Aging Population - Australia aging population is driving growth in demand for drugs that treat age-related conditions such as arthritis, diabetes and heart disease. Increasing Healthcare Expenditure ??? Government expenditure on healthcare services is growing steadily due to various initiatives taken by different stakeholders including governments, private insurance companies and health funds. This leads to increased spending on drugs which fuel growth in the pharmaceuticals industry in Australia. Technological Advancements ??? The introduction of new technologies into drug production processes have enabled manufacturers to produce more efficient drugs at lower costs which help stimulate demand for their products.

Challenges of the Market

Cost pressures from PBMs - Pharmaceutical Benefit Managers (PBMs) are increasingly seeking discounts or rebates from pharmaceutical companies when buying large volumes of medicines which reduce their profits margins significantly. Regulatory Environment ??? The tight regulatory environment imposed by AHPRA means that drug developers must meet stringent standards before they can be approved for sale in Australia and this increases cost pressure on manufacturers.

Key Players of the Market

Major players operating within the Australian pharma space include AstraZeneca Pty Ltd., Sanofi Aus Pty Ltd., Pfizer Australia Pty Ltd., GlaxoSmithKline Australasia Holdings Pty Ltd., AbbVie PTY LTD , Johnson & Johnson Pacific PTY LTD , Bayer Austalia Limited etc.
