Anti-Counterfeit Packaging Market Shows Huge Growth The global anti-counterfeit packaging market in pharmaceutical industry is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate of 21.36 percent during the period 2017-2021, according to a new re- port entitled Global Anti-counterfeit Packaging Market in Pharmaceutical Industry 2017-2021 . The global anti-counterfeit packaging in the phar- maceutical industry is growing because of increasing initiatives by the pharmaceutical companies. Many global pharmaceutical companies are collaborating with several associations and launching safety initia- tives for the safe use of drugs. Rising Prices According to the report, one driver in the market is rising online purchase of medicines.With a growing trend of online shopping globally, people tend to pur- chase medicines online as well. However, it was found that, in 2016, more than 55 percent of the medicines purchased online globally were either of poor quality or fake. Moreover, it is found that most of the online pharmacy websites do not entail any valid prescription for selling medi- cines.Thus, initiatives are taken to fight against coun- terfeiting over the Internet. The Alliance for Safe Online Pharmacies (ASOP Global) is helping con- sumers to protect them from illegal online drug sell- er s by providing access to legitimate online pharmacies. Further, the report states that one challenge in the market is rising price of prescription-based drugs. Be- cause counterfeit drugs are less expensive, con- sumers may purchase inexpensive drugs from any pharmacist who may not be licensed.
