Analgesics is expected to record steady growth in total current value sales over the forecast period, while the majority of categories are anticipated to show consistently positive results in volume terms. Together with the increasing willingness of Macedonians to practise self-medication for minor ailments and some chronic diseases, the rising incidence of pain and inflammation linked to trends such as population ageing, busier lifestyles and growing participation in sports and fitness activities should continue to bolster the use of these products.
Adult aspirin looks set to be the strongest performer within analgesics in retail volume and current value growth terms over the forecast period. With the recent spike in inflation having caused living costs to rise sharply and eroded purchasing power among Macedonians, the comparatively low price positioning of this product type will remain a key demand driver for some time.
Adult and paediatric combination products are projected to be among the better performing analgesics categories in retail volume growth terms over the forecast period. Rising awareness that such products can reduce pain and fever faster and more effectively than alternatives will continue to buoy demand, with marketing campaigns, advice from pharmacists and word-of-mouth recommendations set to remain highly influential in this regard.
