Key Generic Drug Markets

 Growing importance of generics in regulated markets  Pressure from healthcare providers and insurance companies to reduce healthcare costs driving usage of generic drugs   Increasing patent expirations driving generic drug availability Legislative changes such as the enactment of the Hatch-Waxman act and changes to the Medicare Act in the US providing a major boost  Stringent testing requirements and declining R&D productivity has led to limited new drug pipeline  Increasing pressure on big pharmaceutical companies to enhance new drug pipeline
