Water for Injection (WFI) refers to a highly purified water used in the production of pharmaceuticals and medical devices. It is prepared according to rigorous quality standards and must meet the requirements specified by pharmacopoeial authorities. WFI should be free from impurities, such as microorganisms, endotoxins, and particles, and be suitable for parenteral administration (administered through injection). WFI is typically used in the formulation, manufacturing, and testing of pharmaceutical products, as well as for the cleaning and sterilization of equipment and packaging materials.
According to the Global Use of Medicines 2023 released by IQVIA Institute, the global drug expenditure in 2022 was about US$1.48 trillion (excluding COVID vaccine and treatment-related expenses), and it is predicted to grow at a rate of 3%-6% in the next few years. In terms of drug expenditure, this number in China was about 166 billion dollars in 2022. It is expected that the expenditure on medicines will increase in the next few years. From the perspective of demand, the trend of population aging, the increase of residents’ wealth and the improvement of health awareness will drive the demand for medicines.
Global Use of Medicines 2023 shows that the U.S. market spent about US$ 62.9 billion on medicines in 2022 on a net ex-factory basis. Overall growth slows as the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) spends US$64 billion to reduce prescription drug prices, and the adoption of new treatments is expected to increase over the next few years. Besides, ex-factory discounts and rebates in drug distribution, the impact of patent expiration, and generic or biosimilar competition will also affect the U.S. pharmaceutical market.
