Analyst Opinion

The demand for Anti-Rheumatic Drugs in Taiwan has been growing steadily in recent years.

Customer preferences:
Taiwan has an aging population, with a high prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) among the elderly. This has led to a high demand for Anti-Rheumatic Drugs as a treatment option. Patients in Taiwan tend to prefer biologics over traditional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) due to their efficacy and faster onset of action. However, the high cost of biologics has led to a growing interest in biosimilars, which offer a more affordable alternative.

Trends in the market:
The Anti-Rheumatic Drugs market in Taiwan has been growing at a moderate pace, driven by an increase in the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis and the introduction of new drugs. Biologics continue to dominate the market, with a growing number of biosimilars entering the market. In addition, there is a trend towards combination therapy, where biologics are used in combination with DMARDs to achieve better outcomes.

Local special circumstances:
Taiwan has a well-established healthcare system, with a strong emphasis on universal healthcare coverage. This has led to a high level of access to healthcare services and medications, including Anti-Rheumatic Drugs. In addition, the government has implemented a number of policies to encourage the use of biosimilars, which has helped to drive down the cost of treatment for patients.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
Taiwan has a stable economy with a high level of healthcare expenditure. The government has made significant investments in healthcare infrastructure and research, which has helped to drive innovation in the pharmaceutical industry. In addition, Taiwan has a strong manufacturing base, which has enabled the country to become a major player in the production of biosimilars. These factors have contributed to the growth of the Anti-Rheumatic Drugs market in Taiwan.
