Competition

Secondly, “Big Pharma” companies experience significant profit losses due to
competition from the generic drug manufacturers.
Finally, the whole pharmaceutical industry competes with other health care
industries.

Major Chellenges

Major Chellenges
11. Drugs portfolio management
First, it takes an extremely long time to develop a new drug, and only a very
small portion of all projects is successful.
Second, insofar as patents keep exclusivity of drugs only during a limited
time, and soon after the expiration of the patent the sales of the drug sharply
go down.
