Pharmacy Automation Market by Product (Automated Medication Dispensing, Packaging & Labeling, Storage & Retrieval, Medication Compounding Systems, Table-top Counters, and Pharmacy Robots), End User (Retail, Hospital Pharmacies)-Global Forecast to 2030

The pharmacy automation market is expected to reach $7.87 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period 2024-2030.

Following a comprehensive primary and secondary study and an in-depth analysis of the market scenario, this report provides the key drivers, constraints, challenges, and opportunities of the industry.

Pharmacy automation is the process of automating the sorting, dispensing, counting, and packaging of prescription medications in a pharmacy. It includes robotics technology, pharmacy management software, and a combination of machines to perform repetitive tasks precisely. Robotics and tabletop tablets/ pills/ capsule counters are the common forms of automation. They are used to count prescription medications accurately, allow pharmacies to reduce the risk of errors, and streamline the workflow.

The growth of the pharmacy automation market is attributed to factors such as the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) in pharmacy, growing focus on automation to reduce labor costs, increasing adoption of robotics technology in automation, and minimizing medication errors using technological innovations. Furthermore, the advancements of compact automated pharmacy systems and increasing healthcare expenses in emerging economies are expected to offer significant growth opportunities for companies in the pharmacy automation market. However, stringent regulatory procedures and unwillingness to adopt pharmacy automation systems due to high costs are expected to restrain the growth of this market to some extent. In addition, the lack of interoperability in pharmacy automation, the lack of skilled professionals, and stringent regulatory procedures are the major challenges to the market's growth.

Among all the products studied in the report, in 2024, the automated medication dispensing systems segment is expected to account for the largest share of the pharmacy automation market. These systems are computer-controlled machines that store, dispense, and track medications. Factors such as more efficient access to medications, providing secure medication storage in patient care units, increasing safety and efficiency, improving healthcare collaboration, and enabling rapid services to the patients contributed to the largest share of the market's growth.

Among end users, in 2024, the retail pharmacies segment is expected to account for the largest share of the pharmacy automation market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to enhanced medication safety & security, customer satisfaction, and increased operational efficiency. Further, automation also helps retail pharmacies manage the data more effectively and efficiently, provide customized medication packaging for patients, and improve medication storage and pharmacy workflow.

An in-depth analysis of the geographical scenario of the pharmacy automation market provides detailed qualitative and quantitative insights for the five major geographies (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America) along with the coverage of major countries in each region. in 2024, North America is expected to dominate the pharmacy automation market. North America's major market share is attributed to an advanced healthcare system in the U.S. and Canada, the widespread adoption of advanced healthcare technology solutions, and the strong presence of key players in the region. The U.S. is expected to account for the largest share of the pharmacy automation market in North America in 2024. The largest market share of the segment can be attributed to the growing geriatric population, increasing number of retail medicines, reducing dispenser errors, increasing demand for specialty drugs, and increasing incidences of accidents due to medical drug errors.
