🏭 The EU excels in innovative medicines but faces challenges: over 50% of medicine shortages are due to manufacturing issues and we also need to be vigilant about keeping generic drug production in Europe.
Our Critical Medicine Act aims to:
💊 ensure that essential medicines are always available to EU patients, filling gaps where the market falls short
🇪🇺 boost local production
🧪 improve security of supply of key ingredients
= more stability for the EU's pharmaceutical industry.
looking to it, still doesn’t seem that most comes from asia. Still more APIs in europe as stated in the data, not much more for sure but more. The fact that they have more manufacturers doesn’t tell much other than it’s easier to pop up manufacturers there.
The part about production share of a single API is something much more interesting and I bet we could find better data for most valuable APIs in EU somewhere in the european union papers about collapse.
P.S. obviously the best first thing to do would be reducing the need for drugs, like reducing meat consumption and bad animal conditions and then cleaning up the air reducing cars and keeping the numbers of renewables growing
thank you for the data, really appreciated
