Report description

Pharmaceutical excipients are inert substances, other than the pharmacologically active drug, which are included in the manufacturing process or are present in the pharmaceutical product dosage form. Excipients are widely used in drug formulation to provide long-term stability, add bulkiness to solid formulations and facilitate drug absorption. They also enhance the overall safety or functionality of the product during storage or use. The global excipients market size was estimated at USD 4.3 billion in 2016. The growing pharmaceutical market along with the advancements in functional excipients, growing generics market propelled by the patent cliffs, and the rapidly growing biopharmaceuticals sector are the major factors driving the growth of the market. Factors such as the emergence of multifunctional & co-processed excipients, shifting focus of pharmaceutical manufacturing to emerging markets, and the growing biologics and biosimilar industry also present significant opportunities for the growth of excipients. The Excipients market was valued at USD 8.2 billion in 2024, registering a CAGR of 6.4%, during the forecast period (2018-2024). Excipients have been recognized to provide better functionality and competitive advantage in drug formulations and this has contributed to their increased usage by pharmaceutical firms in recent years. Ongoing research on and discovery of ideal or near ideal substances that can be used in drug formulations and delivery has given the market a definite boost. Another factor that contributes toward global growth is that most pharmaceutical firms have been busy in development of more sophisticated excipients with enhanced role in drug delivery. The world pharmaceutical excipients market is driven by the increase in demand for oral solid pharmaceutical drugs and emergence of novel therapeutics on account of the upsurge in the number of pharmaceutical industries. The amalgamation of drug formulation and nanotechnology in excipients has led to the development of nano-coated tablets, nano-derived liposomes, and vaccines. In addition, several companies have targeted the emerging economies for expansion of their plants for manufacturing pharmaceutical excipients, preservatives, glycerin and Fatty Acids owing to cost-effective labor. However, higher production cost and stringent government regulations are likely to impede the overall growth.

 

Absence of isolated rules for manufacturing and endorsement of excipients is discouraging R&D activities identified with novel excipients. Under the present administrative situation, if another medication endorsement (NDA) comes up short, the excipient likewise flops regardless of whether it isn't because of anything identified with the excipient. Besides, clinical preliminary information from that fizzled excipient isn't usable. This prompts major money related misfortune with respect to both the medication and the excipient maker. 

 

The expense and time span to create novel excipients under appropriate administrative compliances are both uneconomical for makers, in this way restricting the standpoint for getting a novel excipient approved. High incidence of chronic diseases and increasing tendency for consuming oral formulations are factors expected to fuel demand for plant-based pharmaceutical excipients over the forecast period. 

 

North America has been foreseen to hold the biggest piece of the overall industry and is relied upon to develop over the conjecture time frame. Polymers are at present overwhelming the items fragment as far as market income and are resolved to be the quickest developing portion amid the figure time frame from 2018 to 2024. The major factor for growth in this region is due to the presence of European Medicines Agency's scientific guidelines on excipients. North America is followed by Europe due to the renowned manufacturers such as FMC Corporation and Avantor Performance Materials Inc. This region is expected to showcase a significant growth owing to the ongoing case studies based on drug-excipient interactions to increase delivery efficacy and efficiency. North America and Europe currently dominates the pharmaceutical excipients market, as they are domicile to key players possessing developed healthcare infrastructure. Asia Pacific will be the quickest developing provincial fragment attributable to prevalence of chronic diseases requiring prompt medicinal consideration, proactive government strategies significantly concentrating on the extension of pharmaceutical and biotechnology part and tapping potential market in the remote zones with neglected restorative needs.
