In 2020, we published an article covering 91 drug patents expiring between 2020-2022. 2022 is already here, and if you are working in the pharma domain, working on the development of generics, you would want to know what drug patents are expiring in the coming years so you can plan accordingly.
With the explosive growth in the generic drug market, generic companies (like yours) are in a battle to claim a share of the soon-to-be-expired drugs as quickly as possible. You would want to know as much as possible, and keeping that very thought in mind, we collated a list of 51 drugs that are going off-patent in 2023. We also included other information like yearly sales, dosage information, ingredients, and the diseases they cure. This could help you easily choose the most profitable drug to develop a generic version of.
Loved the idea and the list? Thank us later in the comments section. Now onto the list.
The article has a list of drug patents expiring in 2023. You can get the drug patents expiration list from 2026 to 2030 in a PDF by filling out the form below.
