Global Anti-Obesity Drugs Market 2015-2019: High Drug Development Costs & Stiff Market Competition
M2 - Mon Dec 08, 8:33AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/pvmmtv/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Anti-Obesity Drugs Market 2015-2019" report to their offering.

It is linked with increased illness risk, disability, and death. Although anti-obesity drugs are available in the market, their effectiveness is restricted to maintain weight rather than cure. Fierce competition among vendors to manufacture and market drugs that are both effective and safe is one of the major trends in the market.

The landscape is vast, with competitors ranging from Arena Pharmaceuticals and Orexigen Therapeutics to big pharmaceutical companies gearing up to make harmless anti-obesity drugs with lesser side effects. According to the report, an increase in the prevalence of obesity is one of the main drivers of the market. The prevalence of obesity is very high worldwide. An increase in the prevalence of obesity offers huge opportunities for drug manufacturing companies to develop and manufacture highly effective drugs. Further, the report states that the high cost of development of drugs is one of the primary challenges faced by the market. Regardless of the numerous benefits, the high cost involved with the development of anti-obesity drugs has direct impact on the pricing of the drug, thereby impeding the acceptability among patients. The Global Anti-obesity Drugs market can be divided into two segments: - Peripherally Acting Anti-obesity Drugs - Centrally Acting Anti-obesity Drugs Key Vendors - Arena Pharmaceuticals - F. Hoffmann-La Roche - GlaxoSmithKline - Orexigen Therapeutics - Vivus Key Topics Covered: - Executive Summary - List of Abbreviations - Scope of the Report - Market Research Methodology - Introduction - Market Landscape - Rate of Incidence and Prevalence - Types of Obesity - Causes of Obesity - Classification of Obesity - Market Segmentation by Drug Class - Geographical Segmentation - Buying Criteria - Market Growth Drivers - Drivers and their Impact - Market Challenges - Impact of Drivers and Challenges - Market Trends - Trends and their Impact - Vendor Landscape - Key Vendor Analysis For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/pvmmtv/global
