List of Tables

[180 Pages Report] The Generic Injectables Market size was estimated at USD 33.12 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 36.58 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 10.64% to reach USD 67.22 billion by 2030.

Generic injectables are non-branded pharmaceuticals that are administered by injection and have the same active ingredients, strength, dosage form, route of administration, quality, performance characteristics, and intended use as their branded counterparts. They are typically marketed after the original branded product's patent protection has expired. Generic injectables offer a cost-effective alternative to brand-name drugs, thereby contributing to healthcare savings and increased accessibility for patients. The generic injectables market is fueled by the increasing demand for more affordable pharmaceuticals and the expiration of patents for multiple branded injectables, which allows generic versions to enter the market. Cost-containment policies by governments worldwide also drive the uptake of cost-effective generic injectables. In addition, the rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases that require injectable drugs for treatment supports the market growth. Despite the promising growth, the market faces challenges due to maintaining high-quality standards, which, if not adequately managed, can lead to recalls and reputational damage. Furthermore, the market is subject to intense competition and price erosion, which can hinder the adoption of generic injectables. However, research focusing on advanced drug delivery systems, biosimilar development, sustainable production, and formulation advancements to improve product stability and storage presents lucrative opportunities for market expansion.
