The global depression therapeutics market, by Drug Type (Antidepressants (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs), Selective Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs), Serotonin Modulators, Tricyclic & Tetracyclic Antidepressants and Atypical Antidepressants), Antipsychotics and Others), by Indication (Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Bipolar Disorder, Dysthymic Disorder, Postpartum Depression, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), and Others), by Distribution Channel (Hospital Pharmacies, Retail Pharmacies, and Online Pharmacies), and by Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa) was valued at US$ 11,130.7 million in 2017 and is projected to exhibit a CAGR of 3.7% over the forecast period (2018–2026). Generic manufacturers are expected to experience continuous demand for antidepressant medications, owing to rising prevalence of mental disorders such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorders. Whereas, branded manufacturers are focused on gaining profits on patented products such as Viibryd manufactured by Forest Laboratories. Major manufacturers are focused on developing innovative generic counterparts of branded products over the past few years. Several potential blockbuster drugs are expected to lose patent protection during the forecast period.

For instance, Fetzima, manufactured by Allergan Plc, is protected by three patents that are expected to expire in 2031, 2032, and 2023, each. Patent for Viibryd, manufactured by Allergan Plc is expected to expire in 2019. Major manufacturers receive approval of the U.S. Food & Drug Administration for commercialization of several antidepressant drugs. For instance, Levomilnacipran received the U.S. FDA approval in 2013, under brand name Fetzima by Forest Laboratories, Inc. Allergan Plc. and its partner Gedeon Richter Plc. receive FDA approval for Vraylar (cariprazine) for treatment of manic or mixed episodes of bipolar I disorder and schizophrenia among adults. In 2017, Intellipharmaceutics International Inc. received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for quetiapine fumarate extended-release tablets in the 50, 150, 200, 300, and 400 mg strengths. The approved product is a generic equivalent of the branded product, Seroquel XR. Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Ltd. renamed its drug Brintellix (vortioxetine) to Trintellix (vortioxetine), in order to avoid misunderstanding and confusion between Brintellix and the anti-blood clotting therapy Brilinta (ticagrelor), in 2016.
