Philippines Pharmacy Retail Market Overview and Size:
The Philippines pharmacy retail market is a booming industry backed by the growth in the organized retail chains and the demand for the generic medicines in the country. Medicines stores have been present in the Philippines market since the 20th century. There were different kind of stores such as Chinese drugstores and traditional medicine shops. Afterwards, organized pharmacy stores expanded their distribution network in the different regions. The organized chains are on a continuous expansion and were observed to generate the majority of the revenue for the industry. High costs of pharmaceutical products have led to growth in the demand for generic medicines. The government has also taken up initiatives for improving the medicine distribution system in the country and increase the reach of generic medicines to the different consumers. Philippines have the third highest market for the pharmaceutical products amongst the ASEAN countries. Online / mail order pharmacies also started to gain traction in the country.
Philippines Pharmacy Retail Market Segmentation
By Market Structure (Organized and Unorganized Market)
Philippines pharmacy retail market was dominated by the organized segment as these chains have established a good relation with the customers on the basis of the store convenience and different customer loyalty schemes. On the other hand, unorganized segment is mostly prevalent in the countryside and rural areas where the organized chains are not present.
Type of Store Location (Standalone and Hospital Based Stores)
The standalone stores are able to generate greater revenue than the hospital based stores as most of the patients prefer to purchase from the standalone stores due to their cost efficiency. In addition to that, standalone stores maintain a wide range of non pharmaceutical products which increases the store footfall.
By Type of Sales (Prescribed Medicines, Over the Counter Products, Non Pharma Products and Medical Equipment)
Sales towards prescribed medicines were observed to dominate Philippines pharmacy retail market during the year 2018. The demand is majorly facilitated by the sales in the hospital based stores and standalone stores near a hospital. This was followed by the OTC products, Non Pharmaceutical Products and medical equipment.
By Type of Drug (Generic and Patented)
The generics category consists of a number of sub-segments existing at different pricing tiers including branded generics, Uni-branded generics, house-brands and unbranded generics. Traditionally, the market consisted of branded and unbranded generics but big local companies have launched Uni-brands such as Pharex and RiteMed at a discounted price lower than the branded generics, therefore have experienced high growth. The remaining market was captured by patented segment.
By Therapeutic Class
The Philippines pharmacy market has different group of therapeutic drug classes such as anti-infective, cardiovascular, gastro intestinal, anti diabetic, vitamins, minerals and nutrients, respiratory, pain analgesics, dermatology, neuro, gynecological and others. The cardiovascular drugs have highest demand due to high rate of Coronary Heart Diseases (CHD) in the country.

Philippines Pharmacy Retail Market Future Outlook and Projections:
The Philippines pharmacy retail market is expected to register a positive CAGR in terms of revenue during the forecast period 2019-2023, driven on the expected growth in the total number of organized stores in the country. The organized chains are expected to include the online sales channel in their distribution system and adopt the omni sales channel strategy. As the medicine market is being dominated by the demand for generic medicines, total number of drugstores providing generic medicines are expected to increase in the near future. The government of Philippines has revived the Botika Ng Bayan initiative which used to provide the medicines in the Philippines at subsidized rates. The government of Philippines aims to expand it to each of the barangay (village) in the Philippines and provide generic medicines in order to reduce the healthcare costs.
