Montelukast Sodium Market Segment Analysis - By Application

The Montelukast Sodium Market based on the Application can be further segmented into Bronchospasm, Allergic Coryza, Asthma, Urticaria, and many more. The Allergic Coryza segment held the largest share owing to the factors such as pollen a powder produced by several trees, grasses, and flowers which leads to allergic- rhinitis. Growing emissions of carbon dioxide ultimately pollute the environment and eventually elongate pollen periods. The elongated pollens period stimulates the pace of occurrence of maladies such as headaches, dark circles, watery eyes and nose, coughing, and throat pain.

Moreover, the Asthma segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment with a CAGR of 11.9% over the period 2022-2027. This growth is owing to swelling Bronchospasm hitches in many young and adult people, augmenting respiratory maladies due to soaring allergens in the air due to environmental pollution, accruing old-age population which is more prone to hazard effects of allergen or pollutants. Additionally, environmental factors such as a high AQI will further propel their demand. For example, in countries like India, the AQI for 20 out of 30 states has recorded an AQI >101, thereby marking it poor, and further making the cases of Asthma grow.

Montelukast Sodium Market Segment Analysis - By Dose Type

The Montelukast Sodium Market based on the Dose Type can be further segmented into Simple Pills, chewable Pills, Powder, Liquid Solutions. The Simple Pill segment held the largest share in 2021 owing to the factors such as lower cost of manufacturing as compared to other forms, preferred by maximum people due to several features over liquid and powder form such as no unpleasant smell as the drugs is extremely compact and coated with sugar or enteric.

Similarly, the Pills/Tablets segment is estimated to be the fastest growing with a CAGR of 12.0% over the forecast period 2022-2027. This growth is owing to broadening demand for the geriatric population as it is the most common form consumed, high accuracy of pills as drugs are protected from environmental conditions such as air and moisture due to proper coating, the possibility of bulk production, and low production cost for companies.

Montelukast Sodium Market Segment Analysis - By Geography

The Montelukast Sodium Market based on Geography can be further segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and the Rest of the World. North America held the largest share with 33% of the overall market in 2021. The growth in this segment is owing to the factors such as proliferating cases of breathing abnormalities due to the increasing trend of smoking among teenagers and the adult population, poor ingestion habits leading to complications like obesity. On other hand, well-established healthcare infrastructure as the widescale presence of various retail pharmacies and drug stores are driving the overall consumption of the drug. Approximately, 25 million Americans have had asthma, which roughly translates to 1 in every 13.

However, the Asia-Pacific segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing over the forecast period 2022-2027. This growth is owing to expanding old-age population especially in countries like India and China, soaring pollution problem as both the countries are biggest carbon emitter worsening the problems like asthma. On another hand as the GDPs of these nations are prospering, they can afford to fuel more money into research and development.

Montelukast Sodium Market Drivers

Growing geriatric population Projected to Drive Market Growth

The world population is growing at a steady pace especially in Asian nations like India and China as both nations contribute around 36% to the total world population. Out of 7.9 billion people, around 4.6 billion people live in Asia. Along with the overall shoot up in population old-age faction is also elevating. There are around 700 million people aged above 65 and the number is expected to enlarge up to 1-2 billion in the coming future. Old age carries corporeal misery and is more prone to respiratory problems.

The soaring pollution problem is Expected to Boost Product Demand

The pollution problem is accruing around the globe due to rapid industrialization. Overuse of coal to produce electricity and several production processes is increasing the carbon content in the environment and resulting in rising temperature. On other hand, due to rising disposable income people’s purchasing power is on the rise. As a result, they are making automobile purchases. All these factors increase the pollution, which is resulting in health complications like asthma, allergic coryza. As per WHO, an air quality above >101 can result in asthma and other bronchial problems in susceptible patients. Following this, countries such as India and China have been a forefront leader in terms of high AQI, which will allow for market growth.

Montelukast Sodium Market Challenges

Side effects associated with usage of Montelukast inhibitor are Anticipated to Hamper Market Growth
