Customer preferences: Patients in Eastern Africa are increasingly opting for Anti-Coagulants due to the rise in cardiovascular diseases and stroke cases in the region. Additionally, the convenience of oral anti-coagulants over traditional injectable anti-coagulants is driving the demand for these drugs.

Trends in the market: In Kenya, the Anti-Coagulants market is dominated by the vitamin K antagonist (VKA) drug class, but there is a shift towards direct oral anti-coagulants (DOACs) due to their ease of use and lower risk of bleeding. Tanzania is also seeing a similar trend, with an increasing preference for DOACs over VKAs. In Ethiopia, the Anti-Coagulants market is still in its nascent stages, but is expected to grow due to the rising prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in the country.

Local special circumstances: The healthcare infrastructure in Eastern Africa is still developing, leading to challenges in access to healthcare services and medication. Additionally, the high cost of Anti-Coagulants is a major barrier for patients in the region, as most of the drugs are imported.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The economic growth in Eastern Africa has led to an increase in healthcare spending, which is expected to drive the growth of the Anti-Coagulants market. However, the region is still facing challenges such as poor healthcare infrastructure, low healthcare literacy, and a lack of funding for healthcare, which could hinder the growth of the market.
