Antiarrhythmic drugs, including sodium channel blockers, beta blockers, potassium channel blockers, calcium channel blockers, and others, address cardiovascular conditions like atrial fibrillation (AF), affecting 33 million people globally, and ventricular arrhythmias. The market is driven by an aging population (1 billion over 60 in 2020, projected to reach 2.1 billion by 2050), with AF prevalence reaching 10-17% in those over 65. Lifestyle factors like hypertension (1.2 billion cases) and diabetes (422 million cases) increase arrhythmia risk. Novel drugs like AP30663 and sustained-release propafenone improve compliance by 20%. The global antiarrhythmic drugs market is estimated at USD 600-1,200 million in 2025, with a CAGR of 4%-8% through 2030.
