The US announced a phased tariff plan on imported generic drugs starting August 1, 2026, with zero tariffs for two years, followed by a 100% tariff in August 2028 and 200% in 2029. This move aims to encourage generic drugmakers to relocate production to the US. Patented and branded drugs will not face these new tariffs, which are part of broader efforts to control drug prices and reduce reliance on foreign suppliers, notably impacting Indian pharmaceutical exports. The policy reflects ongoing US strategies to lower drug costs and strengthen domestic manufacturing.
