According to new research released from the IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science, total spending on medicines is expected to rise above $1.5 trillion by 2023, a 50% increase from 2014, even as annual growth moderates at 3%-6% on an annual compound basis compared to 6.3% over the past five years.
A few key highlights featured in the report include:
- Prescription opioid use in the United States peaked in 2011 on a per capita morphine milligram equivalent basis and has now declined for seven consecutive years.
- The number of new products launched is expected to increase from an annual average of 46 in the past five years to an average of 54 through 2023.
- Use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) by life sciences companies will accelerate and become the norm.
- Mobile apps are increasingly submitted to the FDA for clearance or approval.
- Pharmaceutical companies will continue hiring specialists in patient affairs and patient advocacy, building roles internally with most of the top 20 pharma companies having a senior-level or C-suite patient role by 2019.
