The clopidogrel market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $11.87 billion in 2024 to $13.16 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased use of generic products, government initiatives for healthcare, increased use of clopidogrel in hospitals, increased use of clopidogrel in retail pharmacies, increased use of clopidogrel in emerging markets.
The clopidogrel market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $19.65 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rise in geriatric population, increasing awareness of cardiovascular health, growing healthcare expenditure, increasing focus on cardiovascular health, growing demand for effective cardiovascular treatments. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in new technology, demand for cardiovascular medications, advancements in medical research, demand for antiplatelet medications, use of clopidogrel in combination with aspirin.
The growing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is expected to drive the expansion of the clopidogrel market. Cardiovascular diseases encompass a variety of conditions that affect the heart's structure or function, leading to reduced blood flow, abnormal heart rhythms, and other complications. The rise in cardiovascular diseases is attributed to factors such as population growth and aging, lifestyle choices, stress, inactivity, challenges within healthcare systems, and genetic and environmental influences. Clopidogrel helps prevent cardiovascular issues by inhibiting platelet aggregation, thus reducing the risk of clot formation. It is especially effective in managing acute coronary syndromes, post-PCI care, stroke prevention, and peripheral arterial disease. For example, in August 2022, the American College of Cardiology, a US-based non-profit medical association, published a report predicting an increase in all four major cardiovascular risk factors in the United States from 2025 to 2060. The most significant rise is expected in diabetes, with a 39.3% increase, reaching 55 million individuals, followed by dyslipidemia (up 27.6% to 126 million), hypertension (25.1% to 162 million), and obesity (18.3% to 126 million). The report also forecasted substantial increases in cardiovascular disease rates, with the largest expected rises in stroke (33.8% to 15 million), heart failure (33.4% to 13 million), ischemic heart disease (30.7% to 29 million), and heart attacks (16.9% to 16 million). As a result, the increasing burden of cardiovascular diseases is fueling the growth of the clopidogrel market.
The growing aging population is expected to drive the growth of the clopidogrel market. An aging population refers to a demographic shift in which the proportion of elderly individuals, typically aged 65 and older, increases due to higher life expectancy and declining birth rates. This trend is primarily fueled by advancements in healthcare and longer life spans. Clopidogrel is essential for the aging population to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular events, which are more common in older individuals. For example, in October 2022, the World Health Organization (WHO), a Switzerland-based agency responsible for global public health, reported that by 2030, one in six people worldwide is expected to be 60 or older. By 2050, the global population of individuals aged 60 and above is projected to reach 2.1 billion. As a result, the increasing number of elderly individuals is driving the growth of the clopidogrel market.
In March 2023, Adragos Pharma GmbH, a Germany-based contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), acquired Sanofi's leading pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities in Japan for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition positioned Adragos Pharma as the third-largest pure-play contract manufacturer in Japan, a key market for the company. The deal also established a long-term supply agreement between Adragos Pharma and Sanofi. Sanofi, a France-based manufacturer, is known for producing clopidogrel.
