At 5.1% CAGR, the Middle East & Africa Pharmaceutical Excipients Market is speculated to be worth US$ 336.74 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Middle East & Africa pharmaceutical excipients market was valued at US$ 249.21 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 336.74 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 5.1% from 2022 to 2028.  Use of nanotechnology to improve excipients capabilities and rising demand and emphasis on co-processed excipients are the critical factors attributed to the Middle East & Africa pharmaceutical excipients market expansion.

Nano-delivery systems and nanomedicine are new and rapidly growing fields where nanoscale materials are used to deliver therapeutic agents to targeted sites or as diagnostic tools. Nanotechnology provides several advantages in treating chronic human diseases through site-specific and selective delivery of accurate medicines. NADDS face challenges in their production and manufacture. During the manufacturing of NADDS, the process has the potential to convert the excipients into nano-excipients. Nano-excipients have enhanced properties compared to excipients. Nano-excipients are easily transported through biological membranes. Also, they can easily get absorbed into the blood and delivered to the targeted tissue and cell. Nano-excipients stay in the circulatory system for a prolonged period and release the amalgamated drugs as per the specified dose. The efficient production of NADDS includes a detailed understanding of the physicochemical properties and functionality of the excipients. Thus, nanotechnology excipients would witness intensive scientific investigations in the coming years, as they can contribute unique functionality to drug products. This increase in use of nanotechnology for development of nano-excipients and in pharmaceutical drug production is responsible for growth of the Middle East & Africa pharmaceutical excipients market.

On the contrary, cost and time-intensive drug development process hurdles the growth of Middle East & Africa pharmaceutical excipients market.
