The demand for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) drugs in BRICS countries has been on the rise in recent years.
Customer preferences: Patients with MS in BRICS countries prefer oral medications over injectable drugs due to convenience and ease of use. This preference has led to an increase in the production and availability of oral MS drugs in the market.
Trends in the market: Brazil has seen a significant increase in the demand for MS drugs due to the country's aging population and improved access to healthcare. Russia has also experienced a rise in MS drug sales due to the increasing prevalence of the disease in the country. India and China have shown a slow but steady growth in the MS drug market due to the rising awareness of the disease and increasing healthcare expenditure.
Local special circumstances: In India, the lack of awareness and diagnosis of MS has been a major challenge for the growth of the market. However, the government's initiatives to improve healthcare infrastructure and increase awareness about the disease are expected to boost the market in the coming years. In Brazil, the high cost of MS drugs and the country's economic instability have been a hindrance to market growth.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The increasing prevalence of MS in BRICS countries, along with the rising healthcare expenditure and improving healthcare infrastructure, are the key macroeconomic factors driving the growth of the MS drug market. Additionally, the increasing focus on research and development of new MS drugs is expected to further boost the market in the coming years. However, the high cost of MS drugs and economic instability in some countries may pose a challenge to market growth.
