The global corticosteroids market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of nearly 4.8% during the forecast period. The major factors contributing to the market growth include the rising incidences of chronic diseases and increasing demand for inhaled and topical corticosteroids. There is a significant rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases, including acute respiratory diseases and rheumatic disorders. The most common chronic respiratory diseases include asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary hypertension, and occupational lung diseases. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2016, over 339 million people were suffering from asthma across the globe and is a common condition among children.

Additionally, in 2016, nearly 251 million people were suffering from COPD across the globe. COPD is anticipated to increase in the future coupled with the considerable prevalence of smoking and aging populations in several countries. The rising prevalence of asthma and COPD has led the demand for inhaled corticosteroids for the management of the condition. These are anti-inflammatory drugs which is most commonly used as an effective long-term control medication for asthma. It enables to decrease swelling and tightening in airways.

Some inhaled corticosteroids that are used for the treatment of asthma include Ciclesonide (Alvesco), Fluticasone (Flovent HFA), Beclomethasone (Qvar RediHaler), Budesonide (Pulmicort Flexhaler), and Mometasone (Asmanex Twisthaler). Inhaled corticosteroids don't usually cause severe side effects. The side-effects may include oral yeast infections and mouth and throat irritation. This rising incidence of chronic respiratory diseases is primarily encouraging the demand for inhaled corticosteroids, which in turn, is driving the growth of the market. Emerging strong pipeline medications of corticosteroids for the treatment of several conditions will likely offer an opportunity for the market growth.

Market Segmentation

The global corticosteroids market is segmented based on product, route of administration, and application. Based on product, the market is classified into glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. Based on route of administration, the market is classified into topical, inhaled, oral, systemic, and others. Based on application, the market is classified into skin allergies, rheumatology indications, endocrinology, acute respiratory diseases, gastroenterology, and others.

Glucocorticoids finds its significant application in the treatment of multiple conditions

Glucocorticoids are potential drugs that are significantly used for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The body makes its own glucocorticoids hormones that performs controlling the use of sugar and fat by cells and curbing inflammation. Glucocorticoids supports to keep the body pumping out several chemicals that are involved in inflammation. Owing to its better inflammatory properties, glucocorticoids are being significantly used for the treatment of several conditions caused by inflammation.

Regional Outlook

Geographically, the market is classified into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World. In 2019, North America is anticipated to hold significant share in the market owing to the significant prevalence of chronic diseases and rising demand for organ transplantation in the region. As per the Division of Transplantation within the Health Resources and Services Administration, in 2019, there were 39,718 transplants performed in the US. In 2019, over 112,000 men, women, and children were waiting for organ transplantation in the US. 

The total number of donors was 19,267, of which 7,397 were living donors and 11,870 were deceased donors. There is an increased risk of organ rejection after solid transplantation procedure, which leads to the increasing adoption of glucocorticoids to prevent such conditions. Asia-Pacific is estimated to witness considerable growth during the forecast period owing to the rising geriatric population and increasing prevalence of chronic respiratory disorders due to air pollution and increasing number of patients with skin allergies in the region.
