Transdermal Drug Delivery Systems Market Report by Technology (Electroporation, Radiofrequency, Iontophoresis, Microporation, Thermal, Mechanical Arrays, Ultrasound, and Others), Application (Central Nervous System, Pain Management, Cardiovascular, Hormone, and Others), and Region 2024-2032


The global transdermal drug delivery systems market size reached US$ 6.7 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 11.1 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5% during 2024-2032.

The transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) is an alternative system of delivering drugs through the skin for systemic distribution. It is used as an alternative to oral intravascular, subcutaneous, and transmucosal routes. TDDS supports both chronic and acute diseases as well as cosmetic procedures as it delivers biologically active agents, such as drugs and cosmeceuticals, through the skin. It offers a controlled release of drugs, which reduces the first-pass metabolism effects, lessens the side effects, and improves the efficacy of the dosage by enabling a steady blood drug profile throughout the treatment.

Transdermal Drug Delivery System Market Trends:

The global transdermal drug delivery systems market is primarily driven by the growing instances of chronic disorders that cannot be treated through conventional drug delivery systems, such as oral drugs. Patients with long-term ailments, such as diabetes, are shifting toward self-administration of medicine. As a result, there has been an introduction of adhesive skin patches to administer the daily course of medication without the pain. This has encouraged patients and physicians to prefer pain-free drug delivery systems. Besides this, the wide adoption of third-generation transdermal drug delivery systems like iontophoresis promotes self-reliance in patients since it reduces frequent visits to hospitals and lessens the cumulative treatment costs. Furthermore, technological advancements, such as the inclusion of microneedles, modifications in transdermal patch designs and the incorporation of pressure-sensitive adhesives and permeation enhancers, are providing vast opportunities to manufacturers.
