Generic erosion of atypical antipsychotics will cause the bipolar disorder drug market to decline by over $1 billion through 2018
Generic erosion of branded atypical antipsychotics will cause the bipolar disorder drug market to decline from $6.3 billion in 2008 to around $5 billion in 2018 in the world's leading pharmaceutical markets, the USA, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK and Japan, according to new research from Decision Resources.
The new Pharmacor report, titled Bipolar Disorder, finds that the market will be constrained over the next several years by the patent expiries and subsequent generic erosion of key antipsychotic agents such as AstraZeneca's Seroquel (quetiapine), Eli Lilly's Zyprexa (olanzapine), Bristol-Myers Squibb/Otsuka's Abilify (Aripiprazole), and Pfizer's Geodon (ziprasidone HCI).
