EvaluatePharma have published their annual “World Preview,” which has – for the first time in the past 10 years – reduced pharma’s 2022 drug sales outlook. Last year pharma was forecasted to sell $1.12 trillion’s worth of pharmaceuticals in 2022; this year, the report estimates 2022 sales will total $1.06 trillion. The report stated, “This slight retraction is likely due to a number of factors, but the continuing squeeze on pricing is almost certainly a major one” (1). Here are a few key statistics taken from the report.
