Women’s Health Market Strategies – Opportunities remain in this overlooked therapy area

Investment in women’s health has suffered in recent years as the pharmaceutical industry moves towards specialist care and biological therapies. The traditional view is that women’s health bears several barriers to entry that limit return and deter investment, such as high market competition, stigma, and regulatory restrictions. Nevertheless, opportunities remain in this overlooked therapy area.

Features and benefits
  • Analyze the leading players involved in women’s health, including SWOT analyses and franchise revenue projections to 2016.

  • Identify key marketing and corporate strategies used by current women’s health companies and understand the impact of key recent licensing deals.

Highlights
In 2010, the women’s health market generated $12bn sales for the top 50 drug companies, accounting for 2.1% of total pharmaceutical sales. Bayer-Schering is the leading player in the sector with sales nearing $3bn in 2010 and will continue to dominate the market. Other key players include Pfizer, Warner Chilcott, Teva, Merck KGaA, and Merck & Co.
The decreasing interest in women’s health is due to the perceived poor return on investment compared to other sectors. There are several barriers to entry, including high stigma, poor treatment education, regulatory restrictions, and lack of scientific innovation. The perceived lower level of unmet need and high competition further deter investment

Companies can increase the patient potential of their products by raising awareness, destigmatizing conditions, and dispelling safety concerns utilizing modern day marketing channels. Moreover, portfolios can be further optimized by expansions into non-traditional women’s health disorders and new geographies, particularly India and China.
