A neuromuscular blocking drug is a medication that disrupts the transmission of nerve impulses to muscles, resulting in the temporary paralysis of skeletal muscles. These drugs function by either blocking the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, at the neuromuscular junction-where nerves and muscles communicate-or by mimicking acetylcholine and overstimulating the muscle receptor, causing it to become unresponsive. Neuromuscular blocking drugs are mainly used in medical settings, particularly during surgeries or other procedures, to facilitate intubation (the insertion of a breathing tube) and ensure muscle relaxation.
The primary types of neuromuscular blocking drugs are non-depolarizing agents and depolarizing agents. Non-depolarizing agents act by competing with acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, preventing muscle contraction. These drugs are available through various channels, including hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies, and serve a range of end users, such as hospitals, homecare, specialty clinics, and others.
The neuromuscular blocking drugs market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides neuromuscular blocking drugs market statistics, including neuromuscular blocking drugs industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a neuromuscular blocking drugs market share, detailed neuromuscular blocking drugs market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the neuromuscular blocking drugs industry. This neuromuscular blocking drugs market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The neuromuscular blocking drug market size has increased by grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.68 billion in 2023 to $3.87 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%. The historical growth can be attributed to several factors, including the increased prevalence of relevant medical conditions, greater awareness and training among healthcare professionals, increased healthcare spending, improvements in drug reversibility, and a heightened emphasis on patient safety.
The neuromuscular blocking drug market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.75 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The anticipated growth during the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including regulatory approvals, an increase in outpatient and day surgeries, the expansion of medical tourism and strategic alliances, a growing prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders, and an overall rise in surgical procedures. Key trends expected during this period include the development of non-sedative formulations, new neuromuscular blocking drugs (NMBDs), advancements in personalized medicine, the creation of combination therapies, and a focus on patient-centric drug development.
The growing number of surgical procedures is expected to drive the expansion of the neuromuscular blocking drug market in the future. Surgical procedures are medical interventions that involve incisions, excisions, or other techniques to treat injuries, diseases, or conditions. This rise in surgical procedures is attributed to advancements in diagnostic tools, better access to healthcare, an increased focus on quality of life, and growing patient awareness and expectations. Neuromuscular blocking drugs are utilized in these procedures to induce muscle relaxation and aid in various surgical aspects. For example, in September 2023, a report by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, a professional organization based in the US, revealed that in 2022, a total of 26.2 million surgical and minimally invasive cosmetic and reconstructive procedures were performed in the United States. As a result, the increasing frequency of surgical procedures is fueling the growth of the neuromuscular blocking drug market.
Major companies in the neuromuscular blocking drug market are expanding their product lines through strategic collaborations to enhance market reach and drive innovation in drug formulations and delivery methods. These collaborations involve partnerships that leverage shared resources and expertise to advance product development. For instance, in May 2022, BDR Pharma, an India-based pharmaceutical company, partnered with Varenyam Healthcare, another India-based pharmaceutical manufacturer, to launch Sugmadex. Sugmadex is a novel anesthesia drug that provides a safe, rapid, and complete reversal of neuromuscular block (NMB), including shallow, moderate, and deep NMB, thus effectively eliminating anesthesia effects. It addresses profound NMB and reduces post-operative respiratory complications, available in 2 ml and 5 ml single-dose vials, enhancing efficiency and patient safety.
In September 2023, Biogen Inc., a US-based biotechnology company, acquired Reata Pharmaceuticals for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to strengthen Biogen's rare disease portfolio by incorporating Reata's FDA-approved SKYCLARYS (omaveloxolone) for Friedreich's ataxia, complementing its existing treatments for spinal muscular atrophy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. This move addresses unmet medical needs and drives growth in the market. Reata Pharmaceuticals is a US-based company specializing in rare neuromuscular blocking drugs.
