Market Overview:
The East Africa generic drug market size reached US$ 2.1 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 3.2 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9% during 2023-2028.
Generic drugs are medications that contain the same active ingredients and have the same therapeutic effect as their branded counterparts. These drugs may differ in packaging but are identical in quality, strength, dosage, performance, and efficiency. As they are cost-efficient, the demand for generic drugs is escalating in the East African region.
The market is primarily driven by rapid urbanization, along with improving infrastructure and healthcare facilities in the East African region. Apart from this, governments of different countries in the region are introducing price control policies and import restrictions to encourage domestic drug manufacturing. This, in turn, is propelling the growth of the generic drugs market.
