DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/24ed01/united_arab_emirat) has
announced the addition of the "United Arab Emirates Pharmaceuticals and
Healthcare Report Q1 2009" report to their offering. 

BMI's United Arab Emirates Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare Report provides
independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on the United Arab Emirates's
pharmaceuticals and healthcare industry. 

For the Q109 update of UAE's Pharmaceutical and Healthcare report, BMI has
extended our forecast for the pharmaceutical sector through to 2013. We expect
drug market spending to increase from US$850mn in 2008 to US$1.41bn in 2013,
representing y-o-y growth of 10%. A main driver for increased spending comes in
the form of increasing burden of lifestyle related diseases such as diabetes,
cardiovascular disease and certain cancers. Health spending per capita is
projected to rise from US$1,525 in 2008 to US$2,310 by 2013. The rise in
healthcare investments, including speciality hospitals and the DuBiotech science
park will encourage multinational activity into the country, with a view to
extensively developing the R&D sector.
