Intro:
India serves 180 out of 195 countries, 20% of international generic market. Focus on student curriculum. Focus on vaccines (international market). Ayshman Bharat generates high demand for generics
Challenges:
API (active pharma ingredients eg. penicillin g r/m) manufacturing India dependent on China, dead in antibiotic research (no new molecules), standardisation of ancient medicine systems (phyco-pharma), accessibility/affordability, lack of standardised quality pharma devices production
Way forward:
Demystifying policy (joint collaboration), economy of scale in generic drugs, increasing investment in r&d

3)Govt cooperation in a large level in innovation and research and funding.
4) Medical device manufacturing. (Less import and mass production with quality).
