By Editorial Team -
Image
It's been several years since COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna jumped to the top of the pharma industry's sales charts, displacing longtime stalwarts with unprecedented sales. But, as 2023 featured major patent expirations, the rise of weight loss drugs and other new dynamics, the year’s ranking of the top 10 drugs by global sales featured its fair share of surprises. Merck’s oncology king Keytruda rose to the top last year, adding yet another feather in its cap. With more than 30 indications across various cancer types and stages, the PD-L1 inhibitor shows no signs of stopping. With $25 billion in global sales, the drug accounted for about 40% of Merck’s total revenue last year. Keytruda's sales are expected to reach $30 billion this year.

In contrast, most of the other top 10 pharmaceutical companies are expected to see more moderate revenue growth, generally in the range of 6% to 9% by the end of 2025.

Lilly—boosted by sales of its diabetes and obesity drugs Moujaro and Zepbound— projects  its sales to fall between $58 billion and $61 billion. At the midpoint of the projection, it would be a 32% increase, matching the sales boom it saw last year. Meanwhile, Novo—which also has been powered by sales of its diabetes and obesity treatm...
