Description

Controlled release delivery mechanism helps in delivering a pharmaceutical active compound or drug over an extended period of time, from hours to days. It offers several advantages over conventional drug delivery such as reduced dosing frequency, better therapeutic effectiveness and lower side effects. Factors such as growing prevalence of chronic diseases, rising geriatric population, increasing R&D investments by major players and technological advancements can drive the market growth. However, high costs associated with developing controlled release products and stringent regulatory approval process can pose challenges for the market players.

Market Dynamics

Global controlled release drug delivery market growth is driven by rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular diseases. According to the WHO, chronic diseases accounted for over 70% deaths worldwide in 2020. Controlled release drugs help in better management of chronic conditions through constant drug levels in the body over an extended time period. Growing geriatric population prone to chronic illnesses can also drive the market growth. However, high costs associated with developing controlled release formulations and long duration of clinical trials can hamper the market growth. Technological advancements in controlled release drug delivery mechanisms, growing preference for long-acting pharmaceuticals, and focus on developing specialty drugs for orphan diseases can offer growth opportunities for market players.
