Pharmaceutical Excipients Market

Pharmaceutical Excipients - Overview

An Excipient is a pharmacologically inactive substance having no therapeutic properties that improve the tablet’s formulation. Excipients help pharmaceutical ingredients for better functionalities like longer shelf-life, and they are important to deliver a drug within the body. The main excipients used in the pharmaceutical industry are starch, gelatin, magnesium stearate, talc, sucrose, polyethylene glycol,  stearic acid, silicone, etc.

Pharmaceutical Excipients Market Forecast and Trends

Growth Drivers

Rising Demand for Biopharmaceuticals In Healthcare

The rising demand for biopharmaceuticals in the industry is emerging as a major driving factor for the pharmaceutical excipients market because of their similarity to a natural biological component that is found in the human body. They are increasingly being used for various purposes including the manufacture of vaccines, blood and blood components, body cells and tissues, etc. The extensive research and development activities for producing biopharmaceutical products are anticipated to fuel the demand for pharmaceutical excipients, propelling the overall market growth.

Increasing Demand for Medicines and Medicinal Products

The rising demand for medicines and medicinal products owing to the increasing prevalence of various medical conditions is significantly propelling the demand for pharmaceutical excipients. The healthcare facilities such as public hospitals are now keeping more stocks of medicines compared to pre-COVID-19 periods. According to the Oxford Business Group, this growth in demand is attributed to rising incidences of various communicable and non-communicable diseases including diabetes, hypertension, AIDS, malaria, etc.

Restraints

Increasing Cost of Pharmaceutical Excipients

The cost of pharmaceutical excipients is surging at a high rate owing to the expanding pharmaceutical industry and increasing demand and supply gap in the market. This may emerge as a major challenge for the growth of the pharmaceutical excipients market. Drug manufacturers are constantly raising alarms regarding the increasing prices of these raw materials, which are also directly influenced by the taxes or freight rates imposed on them.

Impact of COVID-19 on Pharmaceutical Excipients Market

The pharmaceutical excipients market was negatively impacted by the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. The lockdown imposed by the countries directly influences the operations of the pharmaceutical industry by hindering the smooth supply of raw materials. As a result, the demand for pharmaceutical excipients registered a significant drop during the initial outbreak. However, the market is projected to flourish in the post lockdown period owing to the increasing consumption of medicines, expanding use of excipients in Covid vaccines, and the rising prevalence of various types of diseases.

Pharmaceutical Excipients Market - By Product

Based on product, the pharmaceutical excipients market is segmented into organic chemicals, inorganic chemicals, and other chemicals. The organic chemicals segment is further classified into oleochemicals, carbohydrates, petrochemicals, proteins, and others. The inorganic chemicals segment is also further classified into calcium phosphate, metal oxides, halites, calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, and others. The organic chemicals segment accounts for the largest market share.

Pharmaceutical Excipients Market - By Formulations

Based on formulations, the pharmaceutical excipients market is segmented into oral formulations, parenteral formulations, topical formulations, and other formulations. The oral formulations segment accounts for the largest market share owing to its wide range of applications for the treatment of many medical conditions. The demand for tablets and capsules is highest in the healthcare industry since they are considered faster and better compared to other formulations.
