Key Market Segmentation
- Segmentation by Product:
- Rx:
- Rx is an abbreviation for "prescribes medications." During the projection period, the Rx pharma e-commerce industry in Europe will experience considerable expansion. The increased life expectancy of humans, which has increased the senior population, is one of the key causes for market expansion.
- In 2019, the geriatric population (those aged 65 and up) in the 28 EU countries accounted for over one-fifth of the total population. As a result, the number of people with chronic conditions is rising, as is the demand for prescription drugs. E-commerce is popular among the elderly since it allows them to order medications from the comfort of their own homes. Hence, the sales of Rx medicine through the online platform are expected to increase during the forecasted period.

Latest Trends, Driving the Pharma E-commerce Market
- Market Driver:
- The availability of the internet providing convenience to consumers:
Consumers in Europe have access to a secure Internet service that allows them to place online orders for medicines. Consumers can order medicines through an online platform that allows them to quickly locate the pharmaceuticals they need and place orders from a single source.
Consumers can get information such as side effects, low-cost prescription replacements, medicine reminders, and drug interactions by using the online platform. Over 350 million people use the internet in Europe, and there are more than 7,000 licensed pharmaceutical e-commerce sites. Consumers can make better online purchases thanks to the large number of products offered.
- Market Trend:
- The growing acceptance in newly regulated European states:
Another aspect helping the pharma e-commerce market share rise in Europe is the growing acceptance in newly regulated European states. As people become more aware of the availability of pharmaceuticals through e-commerce platforms, newly regulated European countries like Austria, France, and Spain are entering the market. In the rural sector, pharmacists are in low supply.
Advanced drugs are only available in developed urban areas, and rural communities have limited access to quality healthcare. As a result, regions must leverage and utilize existing technology to provide sophisticated medical services, such as online prescription ordering, at an optimal level to meet the region's healthcare needs.
