Pharmacy Automation Equipment Market Drivers and Opportunities
Increase in Adoption of Pharmacy Automation Equipment Favors the Market Growth
Pharmacy automation is now being done with robotics and AI. Mechanical devices known as pharmacy robotics can replicate human behavior once they are programmed to do so without constant operator assistance. For instance, a lot of automated workflow systems, pharmacy barcoding, and medication dispensing systems are all categorized as robotic. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly developing field in pharmacy technology that can be applied to various tasks like polypharmacology, dosage form design, drug discovery, computer programs, and hospital pharmacy. Since AI is typically used to mimic human cognitive tasks, the pharmaceutical industry may see a significant increase in its use of this technology. It can be used to carry out human-like tasks on digital computers or computer-controlled robots (such as automated dispensing cabinets). Leading pharmaceutical companies are beginning to use artificial intelligence (AI) in research and development, drug discovery, healthcare system analysis, medication accuracy, medical support, and assistance, helping with repetitive tasks, treatment plan design, and health record maintenance. AI can be used in hospital pharmacies for a variety of purposes, including barcode scanning, automated medication preparation, automated tracking, and dispensing. Thus, an increase in use coupled with emerging applications of pharmacy automation systems is likely to drive the growth of the market.
Government Initiatives in Developing Nations
Because healthcare costs are rising and there is increasing pressure to improve access to services, pharmaceutical management plays a critical role in developing countries. For instance, the role of the pharmacist has expanded to include ensuring appropriate counseling, monitoring, and medication adherence, as well as preventing the development of HIV drug resistance in many resource-constrained settings burdened by the virus. This generates the need for cutting-edge technological solutions. The governments of developing nations are implementing several measures to make these medications easier to obtain. For example, to improve the delivery of HIV treatment, the Ministry of Health and Social Services in Namibia has implemented multi-month dispensing to enable the scaling-up of antiretroviral therapy. In Namibia's healthcare facilities, this is currently widely used, which aids in achieving the country's HIV treatment objectives. In India, the hospital sector makes up 80% of the whole healthcare market. There is a significant demand for it from both domestic and international investors. Consequently, during the projected period, these factors are probably going to generate significant growth opportunities for the pharmacy automation equipment market.
