Xerostomia therapeutics encompass treatments and medications utilized to manage dry mouth, a condition characterized by reduced saliva production. These therapies aim to alleviate symptoms such as difficulty swallowing and tasting, as well as prevent dental issues.
The main types of xerostomia therapeutics include artificial saliva or saliva substitutes, and salivary stimulants. Artificial saliva or saliva substitutes are products specifically formulated to replicate the natural properties of saliva, providing lubrication, moisture, and protection to the oral tissues. They are distributed through various channels including hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, drug stores, mail order pharmacies, as well as hypermarkets and supermarkets, catering to both adult and pediatric end users.

The xerostomia therapeutics market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.04 billion in 2023 to $2.14 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.3%. The growth observed during the historic period can be attributed to several factors, including increasing incidences of xerostomia in the geriatric population, research and development of efficient products for xerostomia, growing awareness about xerostomia-related products, the increasing prevalence of medical conditions, and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases.
The xerostomia therapeutics market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.65 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the easy availability of cost-effective medications in the market, increased prevalence of oral health conditions, rising awareness among healthcare practitioners, government initiatives, and increased medication use. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the emergence of artificial saliva and saliva substitutes, technological advancements and product innovations, the adoption of personalized medicine and targeted therapies, the expansion of telehealth and remote monitoring, and the rise of non-invasive therapies.
The increasing utilization of chemotherapy in cancer care is anticipated to drive the expansion of the xerostomia therapeutics market in the future. Chemotherapy, a cornerstone of cancer treatment, employs potent medications to target and suppress the proliferation of cancer cells, contributing significantly to improved patient outcomes. Xerostomia therapeutics encompass various interventions such as saliva-stimulating medications and mouth rinses designed to alleviate dry mouth symptoms, enhance saliva production, and improve taste sensation, thereby facilitating proper nutrition and oral comfort for patients undergoing cancer treatment. For example, as of January 2022, the National Cancer Institute reported an estimated 18.1 million cancer survivors in the United States, constituting 5.4% of the total population. By 2032, this number is projected to reach 22.5 million worldwide, reflecting a 24.4% increase from current estimates. Hence, the rising adoption of chemotherapy in cancer management is a key driver behind the growth of the xerostomia therapeutics market.
Prominent companies operating in the xerostomia therapeutics sector are actively engaged in the development of saliva substitutes that emulate the natural properties of saliva, offering relief to individuals experiencing xerostomia. These substitutes effectively mitigate dry mouth discomfort by providing moisture, lubrication, pH balance, and cleansing to the oral cavity, ultimately promoting better oral health and enhanced quality of life. For instance, in September 2021, ICPA Health Products, a pharmaceutical firm based in India, introduced Wet Mouth, a saliva substitute formulated with advanced mouth moisturizing technology. Wet Mouth offers relief from dry mouth symptoms for up to four hours, maintaining oral pH balance without alcohol or sugar content, while also serving as a refreshing peppermint-flavored mouthwash and breath freshener.
