Urinary Incontinence Therapeutics Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Type (Stress, Urge, Overflow, Functional Incontinence), By Drug Class, By Gender, By Distribution Channel, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2030


Market Size & Trends

The global urinary incontinence therapeutics market size was estimated at USD 4.37 billion in 2023 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 4.0% from 2024 to 2030 due to the increasing prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) among aging populations and the rising awareness about available treatments. According to a May 2023 report by Dovepress, the prevalence of female UI was found to be 24.8%, with stress UI being the most common subtype at 12.7%, followed by mixed UI at 8.0%, and urgency UI at 4.1%. The study highlighted that the prevalence of UI increased progressively with age and body mass index (BMI).

This market includes a variety of medications such as anticholinergics, beta-3 adrenergic agonists, and topical estrogens. These drugs help manage symptoms by reducing bladder contractions, increasing bladder capacity, and strengthening urethral and vaginal tissues. Market players are continuously investing in research and development to introduce more effective and safer treatments, which is propelling market growth.

The aging population is majorly driving the growth of this market. As global life expectancy increases, the number of elderly individuals is rising, leading to a higher prevalence of age-related conditions, including UI. Older adults often experience bladder control issues due to weakened pelvic floor muscles, decreased bladder capacity, and other health conditions that impact urinary function. This demographic shift significantly contributes to the growing demand for therapeutic solutions to manage and alleviate these symptoms.

Globally, the number of people aged 60 and older is projected to double from 1 billion in 2020 to 2.1 billion by 2050. As the population ages, the burden of UI and other geriatric syndromes like falls and delirium is expected to grow. This increase necessitates more effective and accessible treatments, driving research and development in this sector. Consequently, healthcare providers are focusing on improving the quality of life for older adults through better management of UI. As a result, the market is expanding, with companies investing in innovative treatments to meet the needs of this growing patient population.

In addition, advancements in drug development are significantly contributing to the growth of this market. Researchers and pharmaceutical companies are focusing on developing new drugs with better efficacy, fewer side effects, and improved delivery methods. Innovations such as extended-release formulations and combination therapies are enhancing patient compliance and treatment outcomes. For instance, in April 2024, Lupin Ltd introduced Mirabegron, a generic alternative to Mybetriq, aimed at managing overactive bladder in the U.S. Additionally, the exploration of novel drug targets and mechanisms of action is leading to the introduction of more effective therapies. These advancements not only improve the quality of life for patients but also drive market expansion by offering superior treatment options.

Furthermore, there has been a notable increase in awareness and diagnosis of urinary incontinence in recent years. Health campaigns and educational programs by healthcare organizations and pharmaceutical companies have played a crucial role in reducing the stigma associated with this condition and encouraging individuals to seek medical advice. Improved diagnostic tools and methods have also made it easier for healthcare providers to identify and classify different types of urinary incontinence, leading to more personalized and effective treatment plans. This heightened awareness and better diagnostic capabilities are expanding the patient base for UI therapeutics.
