Respiratory Inhalers Market Trends

• Rising prevalence of respiratory disorders to propel market growth

Asthma, COPD, and cystic fibrosis are just a few of the respiratory ailments whose prevalence is on the rise and are significant market drivers for inhalers for the lungs. For instance, according to data from the World Health Organization (2022), the toll of asthma deaths in 2019 was 455,000, affecting around 262 million people. Additionally, the Burden of Disease Study (2019) found 212.3 million prevalent cases of COPD worldwide, resulting in 3.3 million deaths in the calendar year 2019. The prevalence of cystic fibrosis is steadily rising, along with that of asthma and COPD. According to information from the March of Dimes Organization (2019), there were between 70,000 and 100,000 cases of cystic fibrosis worldwide in 2019. Both men and women were affected at the same rate. Thus, this factor is driving the market CAGR.

Moreover, in the approaching years, it is anticipated that increased air pollution will also increase demand for respiratory inhalers. For instance, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development estimates that by 2050, worldwide emissions of greenhouse gases (GHs) could rise by nearly 50%, primarily due to a 70% increase in CO2 emissions connected to energy use. Additionally, it was noted that by 2050, the atmospheric concentration of GHGs might reach 685 parts per million (ppm) CO2-equivalents, which would cause average temperatures to rise by 3 to 6 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Therefore, when the amount of pollution in various nations throughout the world increased significantly, so did the number of patients with COPD and asthma.

However, due to their positive effects on patients, combination therapy for asthma are increasingly being used, which has increased demand for respiratory inhalers such dry powder inhalers and soft mist inhalers. One of the key factors fueling the growth of the respiratory inhaler device market is the fact that inhaler devices are increasingly one of the finest ways to administer combination medications. Thus, it is anticipated that this aspect will accelerate respiratory inhalers market revenue globally.
