Rising Rank of Medications for Macular Region Due to Aging Population Increase

Reported 11 months ago

In the Taiwan pharmaceutical sales rankings for June 8, 2024, two drugs related to macular degeneration have climbed in the top twenty, including the third-ranked cancer-targeting drug and anti-angiogenic inhibitor 'Avastin,' as well as the six-spot jumping 'Aflibercept.' The prevalence of retinal and choroidal neovascularization as a leading cause of macular degeneration has led to the increased usage of anti-angiogenic inhibitors. With an aging population and expanded insurance coverage, the trend of rising medication use for macular degeneration is expected to continue.
