Assessment Of Policies, Determinants And Characteristics Of Generic Medicines Entry Into The Malaysian Pharmaceutical Market
description The Malaysia healthcare system relies on the availability of generic equivalents of innovator medicines to curtail the rising pharmaceutical expenditure. This study assesses the dimensions and dynamics of generic medicines entry following patent expiration on the innovator drug products in Malaysia. This was a mixed-methods study. The findings of this research revealed 14 categories of policies and regulatory measures with varying effects on generic entry in Malaysia. The mail survey yielded a usable response rate of 53.8% (14/26) following four successive mailings.
