Global Ibuprofen API Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031
Description
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Ibuprofen API market size was valued at US$ 771 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 1098 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.2% during review period.
Ibuprofen (API), also known as ibuprofen, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug for antipyretics and analgesia. It has good anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects. Compared with general anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, it has strong effects and few side effects. It has no obvious side effects on the liver, kidneys and hematopoietic system, especially the gastrointestinal tract. At present, ibuprofen has been included in the pharmacopoeias of many countries such as China, the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, and the European Pharmacopoeia. It has been widely used around the world and has become one of the world's best-selling over-the-counter drugs.
The Ibuprofen API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) market is primarily driven by the increasing global demand for pain relief and anti-inflammatory medications. Ibuprofen is one of the most commonly used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for treating conditions such as arthritis, fever, headaches, menstrual pain, and other types of mild to moderate pain. The rising prevalence of chronic conditions, such as osteoarthritis and other inflammatory diseases, is driving the demand for Ibuprofen APIs. Additionally, the growing aging population and increasing awareness about over-the-counter (OTC) pain relief medications have contributed to the market's expansion. Manufacturers are also benefiting from the widespread availability of generic Ibuprofen formulations, which have made the drug more accessible and affordable.
However, the market faces challenges related to regulatory scrutiny and competition in the generic drug market. The production of Ibuprofen APIs requires strict compliance with regulatory standards, and companies must invest in quality control to ensure the safety and efficacy of the product. Furthermore, the generic nature of Ibuprofen leads to intense price competition among manufacturers, squeezing profit margins and making it difficult for companies to maintain market share. Another challenge is the rising concern about the side effects of prolonged Ibuprofen use, such as gastrointestinal issues and cardiovascular risks, which may impact consumer confidence and demand in the long term.
Asia-Pacific is the largest market of Ibuprofen API with a share of over 30%, the other two main markets are North America and Europe. The top 3 global manufacturers are IOLCP, Biocause, Shandong Xinhua Pharmaceutical.
