Brand Name Pharmaceutical Manufacturing in the US

With healthcare reform allowing more individuals to gain prescription coverage, brand-name pharmaceutical and medicine manufacturers will experience a boost in demand. Rising production of branded follow-on biologic drugs will be important in offsetting the effects of widespread patent expirations, though a major increase in taxes and discounts to fill the Medicare coverage gap threatens profit in the industry.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers develop prescription and over-the-counter products that are used to prevent or treat illnesses in humans or animals. Brand-name drugs and medication have patent protection. This industry does not include nutritional supplement or cosmetic product manufacturers.
