UK Drug Pricing Policy Threatens to Undermine Pharma Investment, Industry Warns

PhRMA

The UK pharmaceutical sector has raised concerns that the government’s current stance on drug pricing is discouraging foreign investment and undermining the country’s competitiveness as a life sciences hub.

Industry groups argue that strict pricing controls and rebate requirements are limiting the returns companies can make on innovative treatments, pushing global drugmakers to prioritize other markets. The Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI) said the policy risks driving research and development spending away from the UK at a time when attracting investment is crucial.

Executives have urged the government to strike a better balance between affordability for the National Health Service and incentives for innovation. They warn that without changes, the UK could fall behind in securing new medicines and clinical trials, weakening its long-term position in the global pharmaceutical landscape.
