Drug shortages in US market, compliance gains positive for pharma exporters

Kunal Randeria of Antique Stock Broking says drug shortages are at five-year highs and there is a direct correlation between drug shortage and prices. This is evident as price erosion peaked in 2017 when shortages were at their lowest levels.
