Synopsis
The longer-term trend toward reclassification of medicines from prescription only to P category and from P to GSL has continued, supporting pharmacy growth outside the prescription market. As the government seeks to limit NHS budgets and promote self-care, the outperformance of OTC relative to NHS prescriptions is expected to continue.
The end of the 100-hour control of entry exemption, which had been a significant driver of growth in pharmacy numbers, has begun to have an impact on the market, with far more marginal growth in numbers in 2014. Pharmacy numbers have grown by nearly 20% in 10 years, increasing competition, particularly from smaller operators, including the grocers.
The pressure on NHS budgets is likely to continue over the next five years and this will mean that pharmacy's core prescription medicines business will grow only slowly in value if not in volume. The NHS is increasingly looking at using pharmacies to increase its cost effectiveness as well as extending their role in promoting healthy living.
