Published : , on

As per a study
by FMI, the global sales of Rx-to-OTC
market
is expected surpass evaluation of US$58bn with a CAGR of 5.3%
during the forecast period of 2021 and 2031. The market is estimated to reach
US$35 bn in 2021, exhibiting a year on year growth rate of 5.2% during 2021. Sales
rose at 1.5% CAGR between 2016 and 2020.

According to a
study by FMI, allergy and respiratory drug segment will dominate the global
market, accounting for a share of 26.7% in 2021. Demand for improved access to
a wide range of medicines over the counter (OTC) for treating common ailments
such as cough, cold, flu, headaches, and others will continue aiding sales in
the market.

The shift from
Rx-to-OTC is gaining momentum as OTC medicines are cost effective and deliver
first line treatment for numerous common illnesses. This has resulted in
reduced doctor visits, subsequently increasing opportunities for sales in the
market.

The transition
of proven prescription drugs to nonprescription, over the counter status for
treating common diseases is a highly regulated and scientifically rigorous
process but it is widely gaining momentum as it reduces massive burden from the
healthcare facility.

For a medicine
to be granted OTC status, it must adhere to safety margin, bear understandable
labelling, and must be effective. These restrictions might hinder or slow down
the process of manufacturing and production in the future. However, wider
adoption of medicines and products have magnified the demand for Rx-to-OTC
products in the global market.

As per FMI, the
demand for allergy and respiratory drugs will remain high in the market. The
segment is also forecast to register 5.7% CAGR over the coming decade.
Antihistamines were the first drugs to receive Rx to OTC status and they have
the potential of treating various lifestyle diseases. This will remain one of
the chief drivers of the segment.

“Key players in the global market are investing in
product development to get faster approval from FDA and other equal chief
organizations. For instance, in June 2021, FDA approved Rx-to-OTC switch for
Astepro allergy nasal spray, which is expected to be available at mass retail
locations in the U.S.”, says a FMI analyst.
