The global Rivaroxaban market has been growing steadily over the past decade on the back of rising prevalence of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism disorders globally. Rivaroxaban is an oral anticoagulant that acts as an inhibitor of factor Xa in the blood coagulation pathway. It has emerged as a preferred alternative to warfarin for patients requiring anticoagulation therapy due to advantages such as fixed dosing without need for frequent monitoring. The drug is most commonly used to reduce risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, treat deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and reduce recurrence of venous thromboembolism. With growing awareness about benefits of novel oral anticoagulants and increasing patient pool affected by target diseases, the rivaroxaban market is anticipated to continue expanding rapidly over the coming years.
Market Dynamics:
The global rivaroxaban market growth is driven by rising geriatric population who are more prone to thromboembolic disorders, growing preference for novel oral anticoagulants over traditional drugs like warfarin, and increasing number of surgical procedures performed worldwide. However, high costs associated with rivaroxaban therapy compared to generic drugs is a major factor limiting its widespread adoption. On the positive side, ongoing clinical trials evaluating rivaroxaban for additional indications and approval for new age groups are expected to create new opportunities. Moreover, development of modified dosage forms suited for specific patient types could help overcome challenges posed by high costs.
