Smart drug delivery systems encompass advanced technologies aimed at enhancing the efficacy, safety, and targeted delivery of pharmaceutical compounds within the body. These systems utilize diverse approaches to regulate drug release, improve bioavailability, and minimize adverse effects.
The primary products within smart drug delivery systems include connected inhalers, connected autoinjectors, connected pen injectors, connected wearable injectors, add-on sensors, and other related devices. Connected inhalers, for instance, are electronic monitoring systems integrated into inhalers, which track drug usage and may provide feedback on device technique. These systems find applications across various therapeutic areas such as metabolic disorders, neurological disorders, respiratory disorders, hormonal disorders, and more. They can deliver drugs via different modes including injectable, inhalation, and oral routes, and cater to a range of end users including hospitals, clinics, home care settings, ambulatory care facilities, among others.

This smart drug delivery systems market research report delivers a complete perspective on everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The smart drug delivery systems market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $12.65 billion in 2024 to $15.17 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for drug delivery systems, rising patient compliance, rising prevalence of chronic diseases, increasing personalized medicine, and need for cost-effective healthcare solutions.
The smart drug delivery systems market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $31.01 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing burden of non-communicable diseases, increased focus on precision medicine, the rise of theragnostic, growing demand for non-invasive drug delivery methods, and increasing healthcare expenditure. Major trends in the forecast period include miniaturization and microfabrication technologies, advancements in material science, integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), development of nano-sized drug delivery systems, and integration of IoT and wearable technology.
The growing prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to drive the expansion of the smart drug delivery systems market. Chronic diseases are long-term health conditions that develop gradually and are often caused by a combination of factors. The increasing prevalence of these diseases is influenced by aging populations, environmental factors, and disparities in healthcare access. Smart drug delivery systems present a promising solution for managing chronic diseases by improving medication effectiveness and enhancing patient adherence. For example, a January 2023 report from the National Library of Medicine, a US-based medical library, projects that by 2050, 142.66 million people in the United States will have at least one chronic illness, representing a 99.5% increase from 71.522 million in 2020. As a result, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases is driving growth in the smart drug delivery systems market.
Key players in the smart drug delivery systems market are focused on developing innovative reusable drug delivery devices to revolutionize drug administration. One such device is Qfinity, a reusable drug delivery device designed for subcutaneous self-administration of medication. Unlike single-use devices, Qfinity can be utilized for multiple injections, reducing waste and offering environmental benefits. For instance, Jabil Inc. launched Qfinity in May 2022, featuring the capability to handle over 100 injections per device and accommodating various pre-filled cartridges. The device not only reduces the carbon footprint per injection but also offers versatility in handling different drug volumes and viscosities. Additionally, the connected version, Qfinity+, enables remote monitoring of patient care and compliance through built-in sensors and electronics, ensuring connectivity without compromising ease of use.
In October 2023, Novo Nordisk A/S strengthened its position in the smart drug delivery systems market through the acquisition of Biocorp Production SA for $164.5 million. This strategic move aims to augment Novo Nordisk's capabilities in developing innovative connected devices and delivery solutions, exemplified by Mallya, a smart add-on device for pen injectors. Biocorp, a France-based designer and manufacturer of medical devices and drug delivery systems, brings expertise in connected devices that align with Novo Nordisk's focus on advancing drug delivery technologies to enhance patient care and treatment outcomes.
