The US generic injectables market is being driven by numerous favourable factors. Due to sedentary lifestyles, poor eating habits and ageing population, an increasing number of people are suffering from various chronic diseases. As the treatment of these diseases depends on the use of generic injectables for improved effectiveness and cost savings, this has facilitated the growth of the market. Moreover, several branded injectables worth billions of dollars are projected to lose their patent protection in the coming years. This is expected to provide ample opportunities to the generic manufacturers so as to expand their business. Further, the low cost of generic injectables makes them an affordable healthcare option, owing to which the US government is supporting the production of these drugs. Besides this, the low competition in the market results in increased profit margins for the manufacturers. On account of these factors, the market is projected to reach a value of more than US$ 16 Billion by 2022.
