Executive Summary
The global pharmaceutical drug market was worth $934.8 billion in 2017 and has grown at a CAGR of 5.16% during 2013-2017. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.78% during 2017-2021 and is forecast to be worth $1,170.4 billion by 2021. Global GDP is expected to grow significantly to 2021, so the 5.78% annual growth of the global pharma market does not register in the percentage figures. Aging populations, income growth especially in emerging economies and the high prices of new drugs are factors leading to steadily increasing per capita drugs expenditure.

North America accounted for 36.5% of the global pharmaceutical drugs market in 2017 and was worth $341.1 billion. This market share was primarily due to the better healthcare system, access to high value drugs, healthcare awareness, high per capita expenditure on healthcare and high GDP of the region. Asia Pacific was the second largest region with a share of 21.8% in 2017 and the market was worth $200.8 billion. This was mainly due to the prevalence of chronic conditions and the large population based of the region. Western Europe was the third largest region accounting for $180.9 billion or 19.4% of the market. This market was driven by increased investment in research and development, aging population, ability to afford high value drugs and established healthcare system. South America was the fourth largest region accounting for $80.9 billion or 8.6% of the market. Rising disposable income, government healthcare policies and availability of affordable generic drugs are main drivers of this market. Eastern Europe was fifth largest region accounting for $60.9 billion or 6.5% of the market followed by Middle East with a share of 4.4%, $41.3 billion, and Africa with a market worth $28.8 billion in 2017.

At the country level, The USA was the largest country in the pharmaceutical drugs market in 2017, accounting for $234.7 billion or 25.1% market. The USA's per capita medical drugs spend has been and will be to 2021 the world's highest, followed by those of Australia and Germany. China was the second largest country accounting for $52.6 billion followed by Japan with a market worth $43 billion in 2017. Germany was the fourth largest country accounting for $37 billion in 2017. Russia was the smallest country accounting for $12.1 billion and this can be attributed to the presence of generics and less reliance on imported pharmaceutical drugs.

As a percentage of GDP in 2013 the USA's drugs expenditure was highest, but by 2017 it had been overtaken by both Brazil and Italy, whose market was worth $29.1 billion and $24.7 billion respectively, and the situation will continue to 2021. In terms of the number of pharmacist, the huge populations of India and China meant that these countries had the highest number of pharmacists in 2017. Three of the BRICs, India, China and Brazil, have low spend on pharma, despite very high numbers of pharmacists, implying that the drugs revenue per pharmacist in these countries is relatively low. With more generic drugs occupying the market, it was observed that 70% of drug sales in India were generics whereas in many Western countries it was much lower, for example in Italy generics made up only 11% of the market. New drug approvals in 2017 were highest in Brazil, 61, and lowest in the USA, followed by Europe. In part this pattern is explained by countries approving drugs approved in the USA in earlier years and the slow and difficult process for new drug approvals in the USA and Europe.

At the global level, pharmaceutical drugs are segmented based on the therapeutic area with drugs for musculoskeletal disorders as the largest segment worth $130.2 billion in 2017. Cardiovascular drugs were the second largest segment followed by oncology drugs with a market worth $129.6 billion and 125.9 billion respectively. Ophthalmology Drugs was the smallest major segment in the pharmaceutical drugs market worth about $27.7 billion.
