In this study, ECIPE has used Eurostat (2019) data to look at the imports and exports of the EU27 in value (Euro) and volume (kg) terms for the pharmaceutical sector. Statistics are reported for the overall pharmaceutical products, human medicinal products, vaccines, and antibiotics.
The main findings are that the EU27 is a strong exporter of pharmaceutical products, and in terms of imports is resilient because most come from the EU itself. China and India are not large exporters to the EU, except for China's share in APIs in volume terms (kg). But even in the latter case, total imports amount to 22.5% of all EU27 imports.
