Rheumatoid Arthritis Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034


The 7 major rheumatoid arthritis markets reached a value of US$ 27.5 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the 7MM to reach US$ 33.8 Billion by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 1.88% during 2024-2034.

The rheumatoid arthritis market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Rheumatoid Arthritis Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Rheumatoid arthritis refers to a chronic autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the joints, leading to inflammation, pain, and stiffness. In this condition, the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the synovial membrane, which lines the joints, resulting in inflammation, thickening of the synovium, and damage to the surrounding cartilage and bone. The most common symptoms are joint pain, stiffness, and swelling, which can be present in multiple joints and may worsen in the morning or after periods of inactivity. As the disease progresses, joints may become deformed, limiting mobility. The ailment can also affect other body parts, such as the lungs, eyes, heart, etc. The diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis typically involves a combination of physical examination, medical history, blood tests, and imaging procedures. The physical exam includes assessing joint mobility, checking for swelling or tenderness, and looking for other signs of inflammation. Several blood tests are performed to look for specific antibodies and inflammatory markers. Numerous imaging studies, such as X-rays and ultrasounds, are also used to assess joint damage and monitor disease progression.

The rising cases of immune system dysfunction, which leads to inflammation, pain, and damage to the joints, are primarily driving the rheumatoid arthritis market. In addition to this, the increasing prevalence of associated risk factors, such as genetic predisposition, excessive smoking, exposure to certain pollutants, infections, etc., is further bolstering the market growth. Moreover, the widespread adoption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including ibuprofen and naproxen, for reducing inflammation and swelling in the joints is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, the ongoing advancements in the field of biomarker research are leading to the development of more accurate and sensitive tests for the ailment, such as anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) and rheumatoid factor (RF) tests. This, in turn, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the inflating demand for disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), including methotrexate, sulfasalazine, leflunomide, etc., which aid in slowing down the progression of the ailment by suppressing the immune system's attack on the joints, is expected to drive the rheumatoid arthritis market in the coming years.
