PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Positive outlook for analgesics, despite economic pressures and impact of smuggled products
The outlook for analgesics in Bolivia remains positive in constant value terms (at 2025 prices), underpinned by rising self-medication, recurring public health challenges such as viral outbreaks, and the greater accessibility of active ingredients like diclofenac, following its switch to OTC status. Although inflation and broader economic pressures continue to raise prices, strong per-capita demand will sustain volume growth, with affordable generics consolidating their appeal among cost-conscious consumers.
Sustainability concerns will reshape the market
Sustainability is gradually becoming a more visible theme within Bolivia’s consumer health industry, as companies begin to integrate environmental considerations into their operations. Laboratorios Bagó de Bolivia, for example, is advancing sustainability initiatives through recycling programmes that reduce waste and promote the reuse of resources.
Anticipated expansion of digital channels
The analgesics market is also being reshaped by the expansion of digital channels, as leading pharmacy chains invest in e-commerce to enhance product accessibility and visibility. Farmacorp has emerged as a frontrunner with a comprehensive online platform and mobile app that enable consumers to browse products, compare prices and formats, and check availability in real time.
