Berlin warns shortening time before generic drugs are allowed to market will stifle industry investment
The German government said drugmakers could not count on getting the extra year before generic drugs are allowed on to the market, making it “very difficult” to predict whether their costs could be recouped.
They say the EU’s incentives for drugmakers are “quite lavish”, compared to other countries including the US and China, and endorse the plan for incentives that link intellectual property protections to health priorities. Brussels wants to force drugmakers to cut deals with them at lower prices or risk losing market share to generic manufacturers.
