The price of Vancomycin Hydrochloride has been rising in the US market since the beginning of January and is expected to continue rising until the end of February 2023 due to increase in demand from the pharmaceutical end-user sectors. Rising raw material costs have also exacerbated the competitive market for Vancomycin Hydrochloride and other APIs. With the ease of inflationary pressure, consumer confidence is gradually increasing across the globe.
The Chinese market is seeing an increase in end-user consumer demand. An unexpected pandemic resurgence near the end of December 2022 posed a threat to China, which exports the majority of API, including Vancomycin Hydrochloride. The market situations, both domestically and internationally, were significantly impacted by this pandemic situation in the Chinese provinces. With decreased productivity and increased demand, the inventories dissolved at a higher rate, leaving the market players with low to no inventories, propelling the prices to increase.
As the first quarter of 2023 got underway, demand from the domestic and overseas markets surged, pushing retailers to boost their prices because there was not enough supply among market participants. Vancomycin Hydrochloride production began in succession after the conclusion of the Christmas break, and some businesses primarily satisfied early export orders, so prices were relatively high, and the general field inventory for the drug was fairly under control. Energy costs have increased because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and concerns have been raised regarding the security of the EU's energy supplies, eventually affecting the Vancomycin Hydrochloride prices. In response to escalating market demand conditions, new production activities changed Vancomycin Hydrochloride pricing patterns in the first quarter of 2023.
According to ChemAnalyst, the prices for Vancomycin Hydrochloride are expected to witness a continuous increase in the upcoming month on the back of new manufacturing activities and fresh supplies to cater to the demand from the end-user sector.
