Acetaminophen Market Surpasses the US$15.2 Billion Mark by 2033-FMI Projection

Acetaminophen Market

Acetaminophen, a widely used over-the-counter pain reliever and fever reducer, continues to be a cornerstone in pharmaceuticals. Its popularity is attributed to its effectiveness, safety profile, and widespread applicability for various conditions. As the global demand for analgesics and antipyretics remains robust, the Acetaminophen market’s upward trend signifies its integral role in healthcare and pain management. This projected milestone underscores the enduring importance of Acetaminophen in the pharmaceutical landscape, marking it as a key player in the pursuit of optimal patient care and well-being.With a 4.2% compound yearly growth rate, the acetaminophen market is projected to reach US$ 9.8 billion by the end of 2022 and US$ 15.2 billion by 2033. According to a recent analysis by Future Market Insights, the oral route of administration is anticipated to command a commanding global market share of over 92.4% in 2022.

Acetaminophen/paracetamol is widely used by people and healthcare professionals and is available over-the-counter, which is driving up market sales.  Since it can be used to treat mild to moderate pain in adults, children, geriatrics, and all other age groups, paracetamol is frequently used. When taken at a prescribed quantity, paracetamol is the most effective and secure medication for pain management. Acetaminophen, which is frequently used as the first line of treatment, is the OTC (over the counter) medicine that is most frequently prescribed. Since pain is a sign of many chronic conditions, demand is expected to rise during the projection period.

According to the CDC, in 2019, 20.4% of adults had chronic pain and 7.4% of adults had chronic pain that frequently limited life or work activities. Similarly, in the U.K., around 26% of patients with diabetes were found to have peripheral neuropathic pain. Paracetamol can be combined with other pain management drugs that are sold through prescription only, which is expected to continue boosting sales. Further, increasing awareness regarding palliative care in terminally ill patients is boosting the adoption of analgesics for pain management. Since the prevalence of pain is over 75% in advanced disease conditions, sales are expected to gain traction in the forthcoming years.

In the U.S., palliative care services are delivered following government and commercial reimbursement policies. Hospital palliative care programs in the U.S. include palliative care consultation teams and dedicated in-patient care units. Non-hospital palliative care programs include ambulatory care, and office and home-based palliative care programs. Healthcare companies are collaborating with healthcare professionals, healthcare service providers, and hospitals to improve quality care for the patients. In addition to this, manufacturers are investing in product development to improve sales in the market. For instance, in 2020, Haihe Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. outsourced the China rights to its non-opioid analgesic candidates, RMX-1001 and RMX-1002, to 3D Biomedicine Science & Technology Co. Ltd.
