Global Tretinoin Market - 2023-2030

Global Tretinoin Market - 2023-2030


Global tretinoin market reached US$ XX million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ XX million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

Tretinoin, also known as all-trans retinoic acid, is a widely used medication for treating acne and acute promyelocytic leukemia. It is available in the form of cream, gel, or ointment for topical application for acne treatment, while it is taken orally for up to three months for leukemia treatment.

Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints

High Prevalence of Dermatological Conditions

The increasing prevalence of dermatological conditions, especially acne, is expected to drive the global market growth during the forecast period. For instance, according to Yale Medicine, adult women between the ages of 20 and 40 frequently visit dermatology clinics seeking treatment for acne. Clinical trial data suggests that around 50% of women in their 20s, 33% of women in their 30s, and 25% of women in their 40s suffer from acne. Additionally, the Global Burden Disease 2019 study reports that acne is the eighth-most prevalent disease worldwide, with a prevalence rate of 9.4%. Moreover, approximately 85% of young people aged 12-25 years are affected by acne vulgaris, and this trend is expected to continue in this population.

Side Effects

Although Tretinoin is an effective medication for treating acne and acute promyelocytic leukemia, it can cause side effects such as itching, excessive dryness, redness, and scaling. Moreover, the administration of Tretinoin for the treatment of leukemia can lead to retinoic acid syndrome, liver damage, hypertension, and other side effects, which can limit the global market's growth during the forecast period. Additionally, stringent regulatory guidelines and the availability of other treatment options are also expected to slow the market's growth during the forecast period.

Segment Analysis

The global tretinoin market is segmented based on strength, application, distribution channel and region.

Tretinoin 0.1% Strength Segment is Expected to Dominate Market

Owing to recent product approvals and launches, the Tretinoin 0.1% Strength is expected to dominate the global market during the forecast period. For instance, the FDA approved Twyneo (tretinoin 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide 3%) cream for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris in patients aged 9 years and older in July 2021. Moreover, Galderma launched TWYNEO (tretinoin and benzoyl peroxide) Cream, 0.1%/3% in March 2022 at the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting. TWYNEO Cream is the first and only 0.1% tretinoin and 3% benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2-in-1 combination established to rapidly treat mild to intense facial acne.

Geographical Analysis

North America is Expected to Dominate the Global Market

North America is expected to hold the majority of the global market share during the forecast period due to the increasing number of individuals with acne in the region. For instance, according to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), over 50 million Americans are affected by acne conditions every year, and the administration of Tretinoin for the skin is the most effective treatment. Further, market developments in North America, such as the exclusive license contract for TWYNEO and EPSOLAY for the Canadian market between Sol-Gel Technologies, Ltd., an Israel-based dermatology firm, and Searchlight Pharma Inc., a private Canadian specialty pharmaceutical corporation, are expected to contribute to the regional market growth during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

Different regulatory bodies-imposed restrictions on socializing and social gatherings, which negatively impacted the global market. During the pandemic, the restriction on socializing and social gatherings resulted in a reduction in the demand for cosmetic products. However, the post pandemic the market is attaining its pre-pandemic levels.
