Global Pharmaceutical Excipients Market Size, Growth and Trends Analysis by Function (Pharmaceutical Fillers, Binders, Coatings, Disintegrants, Preservatives, Others), Application (Oral, Parenteral, Topical, Others), Product (Organic Chemicals, Inorganic Chemicals) - Industry Forecast 2032
The size of the pharmaceutical excipients market was estimated at USD 9.27 billion in 2023 and is expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.03% from 2024 to 2032, from USD 10.02 billion in 2024 to USD 18.48 billion by 2032. The growing need for multifunctional excipients and the growing use of generic drugs are the primary factors propelling market expansion.
Furthermore, the market for pharmaceutical excipients is used to enhance the medication's flavor, which increases patient compliance, especially in young patients. Pharmaceutical excipients can come from both organic and inorganic sources, depending on their chemical composition. The growing need for functional excipients, recent patent expirations that increase consumer demand for pharmaceutical excipients, and the rapid advancement of nanotechnology are the primary factors propelling the pharmaceutical excipients market. For long-term stabilization, to increase the potency of the active ingredient in the final dosage form, or for any other purpose, excipients can be added to solid formulations that contain small APIs. Additionally, excipients are used to improve the properties of medicinal formulations, including increasing API solubility, decreasing viscosity, and improving drug absorption.
