The global respiratory inhalers market was valued at USD 33.5 billion in 2023, with the Middle East and Africa holding a significant market share. The market is driven by the rising burden of respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period of 2024-2032, with the values likely to attain USD 53.9 billion by 2032.
The market is influenced by rising burden of respiratory conditions that directly impact the demand for effective respiratory inhalers. Recent data reveals that the prevalence of asthma is relatively high in the United Arab Emirates, accounting for 10-15% of the adult population and 20-25% of school-aged children. Similarly, it is estimated that over 10-15% of adults and 20% of children in South Africa are affected by asthma along with a high number of deaths caused by the condition. This increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases, attributed to factors such as smoking, air pollution, and changing lifestyle patterns, is anticipated to fuel the Middle East and Africa respiratory inhalers market demand in the coming years.
One of the major market trends include an increasing focus on the development of eco-friendly inhaler technologies in the region. For instance, in April 2024, Mundipharma (a global healthcare company with a strong presence in the Middle East and Africa) in collaboration with contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) Vectura announced plans to reformulate an established flutiform® pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) for asthma treatment. The remodelling aims at reducing the product’s carbon footprint by incorporating an environment friendly propellant. The growing efforts toward the advancement of respiratory inhaler technology with a lower environmental impact is projected to elevate the market value.
