Over the five years to 2023, Canadian generic pharmaceutical manufacturers have accounted for a climbing share of total drug prescriptions dispensed by volume. According to 2021 data from the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board (latest data available), average generic drug prices in Canada have declined more than 50.0% over the past decade. To cut healthcare costs, many provinces and territories have set more stringent price caps for generic drugs, effectively preventing generics from exceeding a set share of the brand-name drug equivalent's price. The Generic Pharmaceutical Manufacturing industry in Canada develops prescription and over-the-counter drug products that are used to prevent or treat illnesses in humans or animals. Generic drugs are produced and distributed without patent protection, and industry operators are not significantly engaged in the research and development of new drugs. The industry does not include manufacturers of nutritional supplements or cosmetic beauty products.
