Report overview The over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceutical market includes nonprescription medicines that are sold directly to consumers through pharmacies, drugstores, convenience stores and grocery stores. Most countries follow the “two-class system” for the classification of medicines as prescription (Rx) or non-prescription (OTC). The OTC pharmaceutical market may be segmented into multiple categories such as analgesics, cold, cough and allergy, digestive remedies, traditional medicines, and vitamins and minerals.. China, Brazil, Russia, India, Turkey and Mexico – the key emerging markets – have always been attractive markets for pharmaceutical companies looking for low-cost manufacturing. However, manufacturers have started to realize the growth potential for pharmaceuticals including OTC products in these markets.

“Use this report to gain an overview of key drivers and trends that have impacted the OTC pharmaceutical market across all six emerging countries.”
Demographic trends, lifestyles changes, growing economies, affordability, and awareness about self medication are driving the OTC market in emerging countries. Moreover, the increased number of Rx-to-OTC switches has also widened the market significantly. Rx-to-OTC switch signifies the change of status of a medicine from prescription to OTC. The pharmaceuticals industry is facing a major patent cliff, where patents for most of its blockbuster drugs are nearing patent expiry, which in turn is resulting in more product switches to OTC driving their sales and reducing competition from generics. The regulatory environment varies in each country, with Brazil, Mexico and Turkey moving towards more stringent guidelines for OTC distribution, while the regulations in India, China and Russia remain relatively liberal.

Key findings The leading players in the OTC market in emerging countries include J&J, GSK, Bayer, Novartis and Sanofi-aventis. They have started to increase their focus on the R&D activities for their OTC divisions with the aim of introducing new innovative products in the global OTC market. ANVISA, the National Health Surveillance Agency of Brazil, which regulates the registration of drugs, cosmetics and medical devices, introduced a new regulation that restricts the sales of OTC products only through pharmacies as Behind-the-counter (BTC) products. This has resulted in the growth of ed pharmacies within the supermarket. India and China have large rural populations, with limited accessibility and affordability to healthcare facilities. Manufacturers aiming to penetrate the rural market are offering OTC products at a different price point to lure rural consumers. The OTC market in Mexico has grown due to the increasing accessibility of OTC medicines which were previously available as prescription only.
Figure 6: OTC pharmaceutical market by value in emerging countries, 2004–09 “The OTC market in the six key emerging countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, Mexico and Turkey) reached $28bn in 2009, exhibiting a Y-o-Y growth of 8%. The traditional medicine category led the market with around one-fifth of the market, followed by cough, cold and allergy and analgesics. The distribution channels for OTC products in emerging markets was dominated by pharmacies followed by supermarkets and grocery stores. This was primarily due to the fact that a significant number of OTC products are not allowed to be dispensed through any other channel than pharmacy.”

Key issues... Rx-to-OTC switches: Rx-to-OTC switches are primarily a company's strategy to increase the life of a product. A product nearing patent expiry is due to encounter generic competition, but the switch from RX-to-OTC provides the company with exclusivity for additional years, provided the company s the switch with additional clinical trials to prove the efficacy and safety of the OTC formulation. Product availability at a different price point: In India, OTC products have always been considered to be targeted toward the urban population. As a result, OTC products have struggled to penetrate the rural markets. Most of the leading companies now offer products at all price points to capture all segments of the population. Moreover, many companies are launching products specifically targeting the rural market, such as the 'sachet' concept for OTC products. Growing disposable income in Russia: Despite the economic crisis, consumer spending on healthcare has not declined in recent years. This is primarily due to high levels of disposable income, preference for preventive medication, and growing concern for appearance among Russian consumers. Moreover, Russians are very brand-conscious and prefer to buy expensive international brands which they associate with quality (rather than products from local manufacturers which are not GMP-certified). 'Natural' buzz gaining grounds in OTC market: The consumer trend of shifting to natural products is becoming widespread in the OTC industry. Consumers are shifting to traditional/herbal medicines in most emerging geographies, particularly China and India. Indeed, in China, the traditional medicine category led the market in 2008 with around a 30% market share. The boom in traditional medicines in emerging markets is due to the fact that these countries have significant rural populations which have faith in traditional medicines.
