High Efficacy & Target Oriented Nature of Biopharmaceuticals Have Increased the Life Expectancies of Patients
A new report from IMARC Group finds that one of the biggest advantages of biopharmaceuticals over conventional small molecule drugs is their high efficacy and target oriented nature.
(prHWY.com) October 10, 2011 - Noida, India -- IMARC Group, one of the world's leading research and advisory firms, in its new report entitled "Global Biopharmaceutical Market Report (2010-2015)" finds that one of the biggest advantages of biopharmaceuticals over conventional small molecule drugs is their significantly higher potency and efficacy. Some biopharmaceuticals like Lilly's Forteo, a synthetic version of Parathyroid Hormone or PTH can be very potent. Forteo requires an administration of 20 micrograms a day. This is 1000 times less than that of Prozac - a small molecule drug that requires around 20 milligrams per day.
The report found that another major advantage of biopharmaceuticals is that they can be tailored as per the individual needs of a patient. This enables biopharmaceuticals to be target oriented and highly specific in nature. The target oriented nature of these drugs enables them to attack only the diseased cells without affecting the healthy ones. This results in minimal side effects and a very high efficacy. As a result of their high efficacy and target oriented attack, patients suffering from diseases such as cancers and autoimmune disorders, who earlier found insignificant relief from small molecule drugs, have increased their life expectancies significantly with the administration of biopharmaceuticals.
