What Are The Core Growth Drivers Shaping The Future Of The Controlled Release Drug Delivery Market?
An increase in chronic diseases is predicted to fuel the expansion of the controlled release drug delivery market. Chronic diseases, also classified as noncommunicable diseases, include conditions such as heart ailments, cancer, and diabetes that continue for more than a year, necessitating ongoing medical attention and impeding regular activities. Treating chronic diseases is greatly dependent on controlled-release drug delivery. Prolonged drug release formulations are vital for people with chronic conditions that require long-term treatment or for those residing in locations with restricted resources and healthcare accessibility. For example, a report issued by the Switzerland-based health-specialized agency, the World Health Organization (WHO) in September 2022, stated that 41 million people die annually from chronic diseases. This accounts for 74 percent of all global deaths, with 17 million people succumbing to chronic illnesses before the age of 70. Furthermore, 77 percent of deaths from chronic diseases are reported in low- to middle-income countries. It is expected that these figures will escalate further in the foreseeable future. Hence, the increasing occurrence of chronic diseases is paving the way for the growth of the controlled release drug delivery market.
