San Francisco, 6 December 2018: The global excipients market size is expected
to reach USD 6.9 billion by 2025, expanding at a CAGR of 6.02% from 2017 to
2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Globally
increasing reach of generic medicines has been a major factor driving market
growth. In addition, rising demand for newer excipients owing to the advantages
of drug delivery and stability has led to the growth of the market.
Excipients are essential components for the
improvement of overall pharmaceutical activity and performance, both of which
directly impact the characteristics of pharmaceutical formulations. An
excipient in the right proportion can improve the shelf life and
bioavailability of a formulation. These can also be used in drug delivery
mechanisms such as sustained release and rapid release drugs.
Polymers were the largest product category
in 2016 and are expected to maintain a comparatively moderate growth rate over
the forecast period. Microcrystalline cellulose was the leading polymer in this
category, accounting for a share of over 26.0% in 2016.
Sugars are expected to observe the fastest
growth over the coming years, exhibiting an estimated CAGR of 5.1% from
2017 to 2025. Sugars can play an instrumental role in increasing solubility,
taste masking, dissolution, and drug delivery, which can drive its market.
