Value sales of analgesics in Nigeria continue to rise in 2025. Following an exceptionally sharp unit price increase in 2024 - over 70% - due to high inflation and the depreciation of the naira, price growth has stabilised, though it remains high. This price stability has supported a recovery in volume sales, which are rebounding after a decline in 2024. While value growth remains strong, it has moderated from the previous year due to a slower rate of unit price increase.
