Strategic Insights

Drivers and Opportunities in the Needle-Free Drug Delivery Devices Market

Increasing Incidence of Chronic Diseases and Lifestyle Disorders to Benefit the Market

Chronic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer are among the leading causes of mortality and disability globally. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 38.4 million Americans were diagnosed with diabetes in 2021. To manage diabetes, insulin is regularly injected into the subcutaneous layer. The growing prevalence of diabetes is driving the demand for insulin injections. Companies are increasingly focusing on developing needle-free insulin delivery systems to prevent needlestick injuries. For example, Medicsen is working on the SmartPatch to enhance insulin delivery efficiency.

Growing Preference for Home Healthcare - A Chance for the Needle-Free Drug Delivery Market

The transition from hospitals and long-term care facilities to home care settings enhances the potential for improved, consistent, and timely interactions between patients and healthcare providers, facilitated by the increasing use of cloud-based and mobile medical devices. In developing nations, the number of patients receiving home therapy has historically been limited. Smart patches and jet injectors that integrate with electronic health records (EHR) enable doctors to monitor dosages remotely. With needle-free drug delivery devices, patients can conveniently self-administer their medications as prescribed by their healthcare providers. Therefore, the rising emphasis on home healthcare and the adoption of technologically advanced products are expected to create growth opportunities for the market during the forecast period.
