The Anti-Competitive Effects of Brand-Controlled “Pseudo- Generics” in the Canadian Pharmaceutical Market
نویسندگان
چکیده
Au Canada, lorsque leur brevet arrive à expiration, les firmes pharmaceutiques qui ont une marque déposée se dotent toujours d’une filiale «pseudo-générique» afin d’entrer en concurrence directe avec les firmes de médicaments génériques. Le médicament «pseudo-générique» est identique au produit de marque mais il est commercialisé en tant que générique, et la firme pseudo-générique encaisse des frais de distribution. Cette stratégie dissuade d’entrer dans des marchés pharmaceutiques de moindre importance, du fait que la menace de la concurrence des pseudo-génériques dissuade d’autres génériques de faire l’investissement requis pour y entrer; et cela ralentit le processus d’entrée sur le marché de firmes concurrentes de produits génériques.
