Market Drivers:
Increasing Prevalence of Chronic Diseases:
The rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory diseases in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the key drivers of the pharmaceutical drugs market. According to the World Health Organization, non-communicable diseases accounted for around 76% of all deaths in the country in 2020. The growing geriatric population, unhealthy diet, obesity, and sedentary lifestyle have contributed significantly to this rise in chronic conditions, thereby increasing the demand for pharmaceutical drugs to treat and manage such diseases.
Rising Healthcare Expenditure:
The high economic growth of the country in recent years has led to increased household income and disposable income of citizens. This has allowed them to spend more on healthcare, medicines, and adopting a healthier lifestyle. The Saudi government also aims to increase public healthcare spending to over 8% of GDP by 2025 under the Vision 2030 plan. This rise in overall healthcare expenditure is expected to benefit the pharmaceutical drugs market through higher demand.
Market Restrain:
Price Controls on Drugs:
The extensive price control policies of the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) act as a major restrain on the pharmaceutical drugs market in the Kingdom. It monitors drug prices very closely and regulates the maximum retail price of medicines based on international reference prices and manufacturing costs. Any increase in drug prices requires prior approval from the SFDA which conducts regular price revisions. This price control makes it difficult for pharmaceutical companies to hike drug prices as per market demand and increase profitability.

Market Opportunity:
Growing Geriatric Population:
The growing geriatric population, defined as people aged 65 years and above, offers significant opportunities for the pharmaceutical drugs market in Saudi Arabia. According to United Nations Population Fund, the percentage of the population aged 65 and above is projected to increase from 2.4% in 2020 to 4.2% in 2030. Elderly citizens usually require specialized healthcare and are more vulnerable to chronic diseases. This will augment the demand for pharmaceutical drugs designed for geriatric care and age-related conditions. Drug makers can focus on developing more products aligned with the health needs of senior citizens to capitalize on this opportunity.
Saudi Arabia Pharmaceutical Drugs Market Trends:
Rise of Biosimilars:
A key trend gaining momentum in the Saudi pharmaceutical drugs market is the rising adoption of biosimilars. Biosimilars are the biologic drugs developed to be similar to an existing approved biologic drug known as the reference product or originator biologic. They are considered to be as safe and effective as the reference product but are sold at a lower cost. Their growing usage can help in cost savings for both patients and the healthcare system of Saudi Arabia. This trend is driven by the patent expiration of major biologics and increasing acceptance of biosimilars by physicians and patients in the Kingdom. More players are also entering this space to offer low-cost treatment alternatives.
