Press Release

Pharmaceutical Excipients Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.25% through 2030

Rising Prevalence of Chronic Diseases is expected to drive the Global Pharmaceutical Excipients Market growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030.


According to TechSci Research report, “Pharmaceutical Excipients- Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the Global Pharmaceutical Excipients Market stood at USD 8.52 Billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 5.25% through 2030. Chronic diseases often require long-term or continuous treatment, leading to a significant rise in demand for pharmaceuticals. Excipients, which are integral to drug formulations, ensure the stability, bioavailability, and proper release of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in these treatments. Many chronic conditions necessitate complex formulations, such as sustained or controlled-release medications, to effectively manage the condition over time. These formulations rely on specialized excipients to maintain the drug's efficacy, safety, and stability. For example, medications for chronic pain or diabetes may require excipients that enable controlled or extended release. As the number of individuals with chronic conditions grows, so does the volume of prescriptions, further increasing the need for excipients in drug formulations. The aging population, especially in developed countries, is more prone to chronic diseases, resulting in higher demand for pharmaceutical treatments. Older adults often require multiple medications to manage chronic health issues, further driving the need for excipients. Ultimately, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases leads to a greater demand for pharmaceuticals, with excipients playing a vital role in ensuring these drugs are effective, safe, and stable for long-term use.

Global Pharmaceutical Excipients Market is segmented into product, functionality, formulation, regional distribution, and company.

Based on Functionality, Fillers & Diluents emerged as the dominating segment in the global market for Pharmaceutical Excipients in 2024. Fillers and diluents play a crucial role in the formulation of tablets, capsules, and other solid oral dosage forms, which are among the most widely prescribed and consumed medications globally. These excipients provide the necessary bulk to ensure consistent dosing and uniformity, making them vital for the production of oral drugs. Typically, fillers are low-cost materials that increase the volume of a medication without impacting its therapeutic effectiveness, making them particularly important in the production of cost-efficient drugs, especially in the growing generic drug market where affordability is key. Fillers are well-established in terms of safety and regulatory approval, having been extensively tested for compatibility with active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), which ensures their reliability in drug formulations. Available in various forms such as sugars, starches, cellulose, and other organic and inorganic substances fillers offer significant flexibility. This versatility allows manufacturers to tailor formulations to meet specific needs, such as enhancing solubility, improving stability, or ensuring controlled release of the active ingredient. As the consumption of generic drugs continues to rise, particularly in markets like North America and Europe, the demand for excipients, especially fillers and diluents, has surged. The growing popularity of extended-release tablets and larger tablets, designed to improve patient compliance, also drives the need for fillers, as these formulations require larger quantities of excipients to maintain their size and stability, further reinforcing the dominance of fillers in the market.

Based on Region, the Asia Pacific region is expected to be fastest growing region during the forecast period in global Pharmaceutical Excipients market. The Asia Pacific region is experiencing rapid growth in its pharmaceutical markets, fueled by the rising production of both generic and branded medications. Countries such as China and India boast large, well-established pharmaceutical manufacturing sectors that are expanding quickly in response to growing healthcare needs and enhanced drug production capabilities. This increase in medicine demand directly drives the need for pharmaceutical excipients. Many Asia Pacific nations are investing significantly in healthcare infrastructure, improving access to essential medications and healthcare services, which in turn boosts the demand for pharmaceuticals and excipients used in drug formulations. The rise in chronic lifestyle diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular conditions further amplifies the demand for pharmaceuticals, thereby driving the need for excipients. Additionally, the aging populations in markets such as Japan and China contribute to the heightened demand for healthcare solutions. India and China, as major hubs for generic drug manufacturing, account for a significant portion of global generic drug production, which relies heavily on excipients. The region’s growing focus on innovative drug development, including biologics and advanced drug delivery systems, is also increasing the need for specialized excipients. These factors lead to rapid pharmaceutical industry growth, improved healthcare access, rising chronic disease prevalence, the booming generic drug market, cost-effective manufacturing, and advancements in drug development, are all driving the swift expansion of the pharmaceutical excipients market in Asia Pacific.
