U.S. Compounding Pharmacies Market Growth & Trends

The U.S. compounding pharmacies market size is anticipated to reach USD 7.18 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.89% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is poised for substantial growth, driven by rising awareness and adoption of compounded medications. The growing demand stems from increasing prescription volumes, frequent drug shortages, and manufacturer discontinuations of key medications. These shortages, impaired by supply chain disruptions and manufacturing delays issues that were intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic have increased the critical role of compounding pharmacies.

According to the FDA, drug shortages increased due to manufacturing restrictions, raw material shortages, and logistic delays during the pandemic. As a result, compounding pharmacies gained more opportunities to fill these gaps in drug availability. The FDA even issued temporary guidance allowing federally and state-licensed pharmacies to compound certain medications for hospitalized patients during public health emergencies. This combination of rising demand and regulatory support is expected to drive market expansion.
