Euronews Debates Highlights | How can Europe shape the future of biosimilar medicines?
With the cost of healthcare in Europe spiralling, experts are considering how we can build the sustainable healthcare system of the future.
One area of keen debate is around biosimilar medicines, which have been shown to help save healthcare systems billions of euros.
These drugs are similar to biologic medicines, which use living organisms as ingredients.
But while biologics are expensive, accounting for around one third of healthcare spending, biosimilars are vastly cheaper to produce.
This is because they are often developed based on a successful biologic drug once its patent has expired.
Marking Global Biosimilars Week, Euronews gathered a panel of experts to discuss how Europe can capitalise on – and shape the future of – biosimilar medicines.

Legalizing marijuana would help with healthcare, it is a shame that the highly conservative anti marijuana Governments across Europe refuse to look at the long established, and overwhelming scientific evidence that proves marijuana has more health benefits than the anti marijuana lobby groups refuse to acknowledge 👍
