Earlier Report Observations

The Hungarian market for not-for-retail sale medicaments containing penicillins or streptomycins contracted sharply from 19.1 million USD in 2018 to 9.4 million USD in 2021, a decline of 51%. The most significant drop occurred in 2020, when the market value fell by 35% year-on-year, followed by a more moderate 13% decrease in 2021.

Domestic production followed a nearly identical trajectory, falling from 18.5 million USD to 9.1 million USD over the same period. Although import values fluctuated between 257 thousand USD and 533 thousand USD, they remained a minor component of the total market and could not offset the broad-based downturn in domestic output.

By 2021, the market had stabilized at a significantly lower level, reflecting a sustained contraction across the sector over the four-year period.
