Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 39.7 Billion by 2024-2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7% during 2032. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, rising demand for affordable medicines, and implementation of favorable regulatory guidelines are some of the key factors driving the market.
Specialty generics refer to complex, difficult-to-produce medications that are created as a lower-cost alternative to brand-name drugs. These drugs are generally used to treat chronic conditions and diseases that require long-term therapy, such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Specialty generics should be identical in both chemical structure and therapeutic effect to the brand-name drug it is intended to replace. The production of these drugs requires a high level of expertise and sophisticated technology to ensure quality control and consistency. Specialty generics are composed of the same active ingredient as the brand-name drug but may differ in other components, such as excipients, fillers, and binders. Currently, there are two types of product variants, such as biosimilars and complex generics. Biosimilars are drugs that are similar to biologic drugs, whereas complex generics are generic versions of drugs that are chemically and structurally complex.
