The Global Animal Drug Compounding Market is valued at approximately USD 1.27 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 7.4% over the forecast period 2024-2032. Rapid advancements in pharmaceutical production techniques and the growth of the biotechnology industry have significantly benefited stakeholders in animal medicine compounding. The increasing awareness of animal health among pet owners and the unavailability of certain officially approved drugs have fueled the demand for veterinary medicine compounding. This trend is further supported by the rise in pet ownership and the subsequent approval of compounded medication practices among animal owners. Leading market players are increasingly focusing on strategic partnerships and collaborations to expand their global presence.
Animal drug compounding involves the customization of medications by combining, blending, or modifying ingredients to meet the specific needs of individual animals. These drugs, typically prepared by pharmacists or veterinarians, cater to various veterinary applications. Compounded animal drug companies are striving to ensure a steady supply of chemical compounds and materials, essential for supporting veterinary compounding practices. For instance, Letco Medical offers a formula database that aids in selecting the optimal combination for any animal, collaborating closely with API suppliers, base providers, and flavor formulators to support the production of animal drugs.
The rise in pet ownership has led to the growth of veterinary pharmacists who compound medications, avoiding common allergens found in animals and tailoring drugs to specific needs. Governments are supporting this trend by funding programs, fellowships, and grants to develop the necessary skills for medication compounding. In Europe, the EAHP is encouraging health authorities to facilitate the transfer of drug store preparations among hospitals and invest in compounding services to address extraordinary situations like essential medicine shortages.
The demand for companion animals has surged globally, driving the need for compounded medications tailored to their unique requirements. Compounded medications offer personalized treatment options for various animal species, making them more palatable and effective. This service is particularly beneficial for pets, as it allows for the addition of flavors and colors to improve medication acceptance. Farmers and ranchers also rely on compounded medicines to ensure the health of their livestock, protect public health, and safeguard the food supply.
The key regions considered in the study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. North America accounted for dominating position of the global market in 2023, supported by a well-established healthcare infrastructure and the rapid adoption of new therapeutic strategies. The U.S., in particular, is anticipated to maintain a major market share due to technological advancements in compounding machines. In Asia Pacific, the market is expected to grow fastest rate, driven by the increasing acceptance of compounded veterinary planning and a surge in pet ownership.
