Abstract
In sharp contrast to the branded pharmaceutical market, which has stalled in
recent year, the generics market is enjoying a period of unprecedented
success. In 2005 the world generics market was worth $45bn, a growth of 14% on
the previous year. Visiongain expects this level of growth to continue over
the forecast period of this report.
