Highlights

Datamonitor estimates 2009 allergic rhinitis sales in the seven major markets of $5 billion. This is forecast to drop to $4.2 billion in 2019, driven by the entrance of cheap generics, most notably in the US. Oral antihistamines are the more vulnerable to generic erosion, while nasal corticosteroids are partially protected by their device.

Reformulation of molecules and combinations are common, but timing is key. In 2009, Merck's Clarinex (desloratadine) had a quarter of Claritin's (loratadine) peak sales, having launched after generics. Meda Pharma's azelastine follow-on has seen more success launching prior to patent expiry and Meda Pharma is now combining the drug with a steroid.

Changing regulations are driving development of immunotherapies, with large-scale development programs seen in recent years. While immunotherapy is expected to remain a niche market, significant growth is forecast. Two sublingual grass tablets, Grazax (ALK-Abell) and Oralair (Stallergnes) forecast to have sales of $250m in the US and EU by 2019.
