Pulmonary drug delivery has emerged as a more relevant alternative for delivering drugs. Respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary, and emphysema disease are therapeutic areas of the pulmonary sector. However, recent technological advancements have applied the application of pulmonary devices to the treatment of non-respiratory conditions such as diabetes and migraines. Advancements in formulating technology are expected to push sales of dry powder inhalers, replacing metered-dose inhalers to a large extent.
Pulmonary delivery of drugs for the treatment of respiratory diseases stems from the fact that topical drug deposition to the infected lung gives a fast therapeutic effect and reduces side effects associated with key drugs. There is a need to understand the trends in this market, currently available devices and their problems, and the latest developments for drug delivery to the lungs.
The global pulmonary drug delivery technologies market which was $19.6 billion in 2010 reached around $22.5 billion by 2011. This global market is further projected to reach nearly $44 billion by 2016 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.3%.
The market for metered dose inhalers (MDIs) was $12.5 billion in 2010 and reached an estimated $14.4 billion by the end of 2011. The report forecasts this market will grow to $29.8 billion by 2016 at a CAGR of 15.7%.
The market for dry powder inhalers (DPIs) was $6.6 billion in 2010. This market increased to an estimated $7.5 billion in 2011 and is expected to reach $13.4 billion by 2016 at a CAGR of 12.3%.
