In the past years, the revenue in the Anti-Coagulants market has experienced strong growth, mainly driven by a strong increase in sales of direct oral anti-coagulants. While this trend is expected to continue for the next few years, a substantial decline is projected for the last years of the forecast period. This can be explained by expiring patents, e.g., in the case of Xarelto in the European Union (in 2023) and in the U.S. (in 2024) or in the case of Eliquis in 2026, which will result in the expected drop in each of these years.
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, limited access to healthcare facilities has triggered a shift away from warfarin, which requires monitoring, and injectables. Instead, more oral anti-coagulants have been used, compensating the negative impact of the pandemic and leading to notable growth in 2020.
