Global Injectables Market: Insights & Forecast with Potential Impact of COVID-19 (2022-2026)

The global injectables market is estimated to reach US$836.6 billion in 2026, progressing at a CAGR of 10.95%, over the period 2022-2026. Factors such as increasing geriatric population, upsurge in demand for convenient drug delivery, expanding use of biologics, rising healthcare expenditure and surging incidence of cancer cases would drive the growth of the market. However, the market growth would be challenged by stringent regulatory guidelines, emergence of alternative drug delivery methods and manufacturing complexity and high operational cost. A few notable trends may include accelerating prevalence of chronic diseases, growing adoption of self-injectable devices, upswing in drug shortages and advancements in technology.

Depending on the type, the global injectables market can be bifurcated into two main categories: innovator and generic. Further, generic injectables market can be split into Anti-Infectives (AI), Antineoplastics + Immunomodulators (AN+IM), Alimentary Tract + Metabolic (AT+Mb), Blood Related (BR), Central Nervous System (CNS), Musculoskeletal (Msk) and others, on the basis of therapy.

The fastest growing regional market is North America due to the improvements in healthcare infrastructure coupled with growing demand for injectables on account of high presence of a large number of patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes and arthritis which require frequent drug dosing and increasing research and development activities for the development of innovative injectables drugs.
