The growing population of Brazil and increase in demand for generic and other medicines has led major players in the industry to expand their production capabilities. In order to capture the market potential, the industry has witnessed various mergers and acquisitions over the last few years. The companies largely focus on acquiring smaller companies or brands in order to expand their product portfolio or add a new business segment. Pressure has been rising to meet the regulations on manufacturing, research and development of medicines.

The local currency of Brazil has been depreciating over the years. In 2018, the exchange rate with respect to US dollars was recorded to be BRL 3.6 and Brazil on the other hand relies heavily on the imports of raw materials for the manufacturing of medicine from countries such as Unites States of America, Germany and many other countries.
The domestic currency (BRL) depreciation resulted in high costs on imports of raw materials and it led to a downfall in the production outputs of generic and patented drugs in the country.
