Analgesics in Denmark
KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
As consumers purchases increase due to COVID-19, the Danish Medicines Board implements rules to curb stockpiling of analgesics
Changes in retailing due to COVID-19, as consumers increasingly move to e-commerce during the lockdown period
The analgesics landscape is highly consolidated as GlaxoSmithKline Consumer HealthCare A/S retains its lead in 2020

Following a decline in 2021, a solid performance is expected across the forecast period, as topical analgesics/anaesthetic lead growth
The ageing population in Denmark will drive positive value and volume growth across the forecast period
Innovation is set to drive sales; however, prescription medication and alternative treatments remain a threat to growth

RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
The COVID-19 virus and increasing interest in health and wellness supports growth across the forecast period

KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
Despite a rise in stress due to COVID-19, growth in sleep aids is only set to rise slightly, as some consumers prefer not to rely on the products
Prescription sleep aids are a growing threat to sales, as the effectiveness of herbal/traditional products is questioned
No changes in the landscape in 2020, as Orkla Care A/S continues to lead, and the use of e-commerce rises
RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
Growth is set to be positive, increasing from 2021 as stress and anxieties continue into the early forecast period
Growth is stifled as consumers turn to alternative ways of promoting sleep, including yoga, exercise and meditation
While COVID-19 boosts e-commerce sales in 2020, high online sales over the forecast period will benefit from the looser restrictions on herbal/traditional products

KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
