Injectable drugs refer to medications that are administered directly into the body, mostly through veins, muscles or tissues. These are preferred over other drug delivery methods for various critical care therapies, owing to their ability to deliver medications directly into the bloodstream, ensuring rapid onset of action. Advancements in drug delivery technologies have led to development of novel injectable formulations with improved stability, solubility and bioavailability of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Growing prevalence of chronic diseases, rising focus on biologics and targeted drug therapies, and increasing demand for self-administered injectables can drive the market growth.
Market Dynamics:
Global injectable drugs market growth is driven by rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes and autoimmune disorders. According to WHO, chronic diseases are estimated to account for over 60% of global deaths. Rapid adoption of biologics and targeted drug therapies for treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases can also drive the market growth. However, high costs associated with R&D and manufacturing of injectable products can pose challenges for the market players. Risk of needle-stick injuries while administering injectables can also hamper its adoption. Growing demand for self-administered injectables especially for management of chronic diseases can offer growth opportunities in the near future.
