Drug repositioning or repurposing is intended to find alternative uses for a pioneering drug or a drug that is made by another innovator. It mostly involves developing approved or failed compounds. Drug repositioning is expanding in the area of rare and neglected diseases. It has the potential to decrease both the time-frame and the costs as existing data on how a drug can be used, including safety and toxicology data, reduces the need for early phases of drug discovery, such as the need for safety trials. Drug repurposing is actively pursued by several university research organizations and start-up companies. Many pharmaceutical corporations created alliances with these organizations for repurposing their existing drugs.

The COVID-19 pandemic has positively affected the drug repurposing market across the globe. Researchers are progressively working on the study of coronavirus and available drug reactions. The pandemic affected all businesses and GDP fell significantly. People are concentrating on buying available drugs. Moreover, the demand for drug repurposing is projected to depend on the rising demand for health supplements, unavailable drugs for precise diseases, and consumer awareness regarding health.

Globally, the impact of COVID-19 impeded the economical growth of several countries such as India, the UK, France, Italy, Germany, and the US. Progressive study of drugs and repurposing were held by the players of drug repurposing. Researchers were asked to comply with government regulations such as sanitization and social distancing. Currently, production facilities are operating at 50% capacity to cater to the demand. Supply of drugs through online distribution channels is increasing, as many consumers prefer to avoid OTC purchases and opt for the online mode for purchases.
