Earlier Report Observations

The market size for not for retail sale medicaments with penicillins or streptomycins in Sweden, measured in value, stood at 19.8 million USD in 2020. It then contracted by 15% to 16.9 million USD in 2021. The following year saw a slight recovery to 17.2 million USD, indicating market stabilization.

A significant expansion occurred in 2023, with the market jumping 22% to 20.9 million USD. This surge was primarily driven by government and medical agency interventions to address a shortage of the penicillin Kåvepenin, including measures to secure supply through buffer stocks and price adjustments, alongside global supply chain pressures from the war in Ukraine and pandemic aftermath. Growth continued into 2024, reaching 21.8 million USD, supported by an increase in pharmacy trade margins to offset high inflation, a sectoral shift towards e-commerce for prescription medicines, and overall growth in the Swedish pharmaceuticals market.
