Introduction
The global antidepressant market has seen extraordinary growth over the last decade. However, with few entrants, and a flood of patent expiries by 2009, the dynamics of this $16.9 billion market are set to undergo a major change. As generic competition intensifies, companies need to carefully re-examine their strategies if they wish to protect their market share.

Scope


Highlights
Antidepressant sales are expected to decrease by -21.5% to $13.5 billion by 2011. During the forecast period, 2003-11, the market will experience a period of high volatility as revenues are impacted by consecutive patent expiries and limited product launches.

The serotonergic class dominates the market, accounting for 57.6% of market share in 2002. However, all of the leading brands will suffer patent expiries by 2009. As physicians are encouraged to utilize cheaper generics, brand players must look towards maximizing revenues through product differentiation and innovative lifecycle strategies.

Wyeth's noradrenergic, Effexor has positioned itself as a relatively unique product in the antidepressant market. However, with Lilly's Cymbalta demonstrating a similar mode of action and anticipated to launch in mid 2004, Effexor is expected to undergo its first major challenge to its market position.
