Description

The global Montelukast Sodium market size is predicted to grow from US$ 66.52 million in 2025 to US$ 150 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.5% from 2026 to 2032.

Montelukast sodium is a hygroscopic, optically active, and white to off-white powder. Montelukast sodium is freely soluble in ethanol, methanol, and water and practically insoluble in acetonitrile. It is administered orally for prophylaxis and chronic treatment of asthma, exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, and allergic rhinitis.In 2024, global Montelukast Sodium production reached approximately 122 MT, with an average global market price of around US$ 562 per kg.

Montelukast sodium demand is mainly driven by the large and persistent patient base for asthma control, exercise-induced bronchoconstriction prevention, and allergic rhinitis, plus the product’s “system” advantages: it’s oral, convenient for long-term use (including pediatric chewables/granules), and often positioned as add-on therapy when inhaled regimens don’t fully control symptoms or when adherence to inhalers is an issue. Because it is widely generic, volume is also shaped by payer formularies and tendering, seasonal allergy cycles, and growth in emerging markets; at the same time, utilization can be pressured by safety-risk communication around neuropsychiatric events (especially for mild allergic rhinitis), and by competition from inhaled corticosteroid/combination inhalers, inexpensive OTC allergy options, and (for severe asthma) biologics that can reduce reliance on oral add-ons.

Upstream, the montelukast sodium “market” is anchored in the API supply chain and its chemical building blocks: production relies on multi-step synthesis using specialty aromatic/heteroaromatic intermediates (quinoline-type cores and substituted phenyl side chains), sulfur-containing reagents for thioether construction, bases/acids for couplings and workups, and then salt formation to the sodium form (typically using sodium bases and tightly controlled crystallization/isolation). Costs and availability are therefore influenced by upstream petrochemical aromatics (benzene/toluene/xylene derivatives feeding advanced intermediates), chlorinating/activating reagents, catalysts, and large volumes of solvents and utilities, as well as by GMP-grade raw-material qualification, impurity controls (including “special attention” impurity classes such as nitrosamines where applicable), solvent recovery capacity, and hazardous-waste treatment economics. Downstream from API, finished-dose manufacturers pull on upstream markets for excipients (binders, disintegrants, coatings, sweeteners/flavors for pediatric forms) and packaging (blister films/foils, bottles), and the overall chain is highly sensitive to regulatory compliance, site approvals, and supply reliability because switching sources can require re-qualification.

As a mature, highly competitive generic small-molecule, the industry typically runs at mid-teens to mid-20% gross margins at the API level
