Regional Analysis

North America is expected to hold a dominant position in the global omeprazole market. This is owing to increasing number of people affected by H.pylori infection, which in turn is expected to increase the risk of gastric and duodenal ulcers. According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), Health Information Center, 2014, about 30 to 40 percent of people in the U.S. suffer from the H. pylori infection, thus increasing the risk of duodenal and gastric development.

Furthermore, attractive discount programs offered by various online portals to provide a cost-effective option for the prescription product is expected to drive market growth. For instance, SingleCare, an online service for prescriptions, partners with the major pharmacies in the U.S. help patients to save around 80% off on prescription cost, thus providing access to affordable treatment. Also, generic omeprazole is covered by most Medicare and insurance plans.
