Iran has achieved significant success in extending healthcare and views the healthcare sector as a priority. Therefore the drug manufacturing is considered as a strategic Industry and associated with government supports. This could not be considered as an advantage, the majority of the Iranian producers are dependent to the government support, on the other hand taking in to account the initial task of government to preserve the low income consumer&#8217;s rights a serious paradox faces the pharmaceutical sector leading to the government interfere directly with the production, supply, distribution, and consumption of pharmaceuticals. Despite all the deficits and shortcomings we have discussed the country enjoys several important advantages in its pharmaceutical industry: Good industrial infrastructure, an inexpensive and highly educated workforce, a large and growing domestic market and access to other regional markets: Iran is located at the heart of three regions &#8211; Central Asia and the Caucasus, the East Mediterranean, and the Middle-East. Combined with relative advantage of Iran&#8217;s pharmaceutical industry-including inexpensive labor force, adequate industrial infrastructure, and the necessary expertise-this unique geographical situation provides the opportunity to eye foreign markets. Having achieved 75% of the total nominal capacity of its pharmaceutical industries, Iran does have the potential to expand into neighboring markets. Having considered the realities of the world pharmaceutical market 25 and the domestic needs of the country, both the large-scale and sectorial. In long-term, paying attention to combination of products is one the most important factors of pharmaceutical companies\u2019 profitability and growth.<\/p><p><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iranian Pharmaceuticals Industry Analysis Report Summary This report provides a brief overview on macro pharmaceutical Industry in Iran.
