Nasal Drug Delivery Technology Market by Dosage Forms (Spray, Drops, Gel, and Powder), Container Types (Pressurized and Non-Pressurized), Therapeutic Applications (Nasal Congestion, Rhinitis, Asthma, and Others), and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa)- Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028

The global nasal drug delivery technology market size was valued at USD 49 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the rising preferences for alternative sources of administration with respect to nasal drugs.
 

Nasal drug delivery is a process in which the drugs are insufflated to the nose of the host. There are two main routes of administration which are followed here, either the systematic administration which affects the entire circulatory systems or the topical administration which affects the particular target of the body mainly the nasal system of the host. Nasal drugs can be used in different applications such as migraine drugs, nicotine replacement, hormone treatments, medications for seizure emergencies, and decongestants for allergy & cold treatments.

According to the World Health Organization or the WHO, along with the Research and Development Review board, in 2017, 60% of American adults and 54% across the globe have multiple chronic conditions regarding nasal diseases every year. In 2020, this figure has reached 80% in America and over 70% across the globe due to the coronavirus impact. The COVID-19 pandemic has fueled the growth of the global nasal drug delivery technology market. The coronavirus mainly spread from the nasal cavities of patients and doctors found that there was a direct correlation between the treatment of coronavirus to that of the nasal drug delivery system. This steered to hospitals, clinics, and healthcare laboratories to focus more on the development of nasal drug delivery technology for the prevention and treatment of diseases.

Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities

• Increase in spending and investing by the companies towards nasal drug delivery technology is the primary reason for the projection of boosting the market growth during the forecast period, 2021-2028.
• Rapid growth of the biopharmaceutical companies and thereby that industry can become a major factor in the boosting of the global nasal drug delivery technology market during the forecast period.
