Report : Middle East & Africa Insulin Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis – by Type (Long Acting Insulin, Rapid Acting Insulins, Short acting Insulins and Traditional Human Insulins, Concentrated Insulins and Combination Insulins, Biosimilar Insulins, Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), Pens and Needles, and Others)   

At 9.2% CAGR, the MEA Insulin Market is speculated to be worth US$ 5,549.57 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights              

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the MEA insulin market was valued at US$ 3,255.91 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 5,549.57 million by 2028, registering an annual growth rate of 10.5% from 2022 to 2028.  Regeneration of diabetic pancreas with advanced transplants and insufficient competition from biosimilars are the critical factors attributed to the market expansion.                

Artificial pancreas can control blood sugar levels for people with type 1 diabetes better than the standard treatment. For people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices provide around-the-clock information on blood glucose levels, which is then used to determine how much insulin is needed. Insulin pumps allow the insulin doses to be administered subcutaneously throughout the day. Cells naturally produce small molecules, hormones, and proteins to keep the body functioning properly. These cells are used to rather rely on injections or pills to replace biomolecules produced by diseased cells, using an encapsulated cell.  Despite frequent monitoring of blood sugar levels and dose adjustments, insulin injections do not ideally recreate the natural waves of insulin released from the pancreas. This leaves patients continually working to avoid chronically high or low blood sugar, which can cause blindness, diabetic coma, or life-threatening insulin shock. Various research groups have been working on regeneration technology with diverse results. This promising technology will help in the removal of diabetes-related problems and is expected to be a prevalent future trend in the insulin market.

On the contrary, risks associated with insulin delivery devices hurdles the growth of MEA insulin market.
