The global oral anti-diabetes drugs market is estimated to expand at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021-2028. Diabetes is chronic condition in which the human body cannot successfully use the generated insulin, or the pancreas is unable to synthesize sufficient insulin. Diabetes is characterized by intensified levels of blood glucose, which can even result in critical damage to kidneys, blood vessels, nerves, heart, and eyes. Diabetes is alternatively known as hyperglycemia. Insulin is a hormone that controls the blood sugar in body. Consistent rise in blood sugar steers to high diabetes. Uncontainable diabetes can injure the nervous system and other organs. Diabetes is classified into type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Type 1 is insulin-dependent diabetes and occurs when the immune system imprudently assaults and exterminates the beta cells of the pancreas. As a result, little to no insulin is secreted into the body and sugar saturates in the blood otherwise used as energy.
The type 1 diabetes is unusual condition affecting nearly 10% of diabetes patients and about 90% of diabetes patients are affected by the type 2 diabetes. Meanwhile, the type 2 diabetes occurs when body is unable to use up insulin or cannot synthesize the required amount.
