Anti-Hypertensive Drugs Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends And Forecast, 2013 – 2019

Pharmaceuticals copy
Hypertension is a chronic medical condition in which the arterial blood pressure is elevated to an undesired level. Also referred to as arterial hypertension or high blood pressure in generic terms, the condition is measured in terms of systolic and diastolic pressure. At rest blood pressure level is in the range of 120-140 mm Hg systolic and 60-90mm Hg diastolic. Hypertension arises when it is persistently at or above the 140/90mm Hg level. Primary hypertension, a condition with no underlying medical cause is highly prevalent than secondary hypertension which is caused by other conditions such as kidney, heart, endocrine or arterial disorders. Changing lifestyle habits such as diet, smoking and exercising are the major cause of hypertension. Hypertension is one of the most powerful risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Based on their therapeutic class, the anti-hypertensive drugs market is classified into diuretics, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), calcium channel blockers, beta blockers, alpha blockers, vasodilators and renin inhibitors. These drugs find their therapeutic use as single drug administration or in fixed dose combinations. Diuretics are the first line of treatment recommended by the physicians for most patients. However, the drug preference depends on the patient’s medical history and current conditions. For instance, a hypertensive patient with diabetes may be recommended an ACE inhibitor as a first line treatment.
Hypertension is a lifelong disease, which means that a patient may require to take medications every day for the rest of his/her life. Thus, the demand for anti-hypertensive dugs is sustainable and will increase with increase in the number of target patients. Anti-hypertensive drugs were the second largest therapy area in 2011 with the global sales value of more than USD 40 billion, according to the World Preview 2018 report by Evaluate Pharma.
This market however, will be volatile due to patent expiries of blockbuster drugs, generic erosion, and launch of novel molecules. For example, the patent expiration of blockbuster drugs such as Diovan, Revatio, Avapro, Exforge and BIopress has impacted the global anti-hypertensive market with the entry of generics. On the other hand, the demand for fixed dose combinations is certain to rise, backed by the increase in number of patients. Factors such as aging population and lifestyle modifications will lead to an increase in the global incidence rate of hypertension.
Some of the key players contributing to the global anti-hypertensive drugs market include Novartis AG, Pfizer, Inc., Johnson & Johnson Ltd., Sanofi S.A., Lupin Limited, Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited, Merck & Co., Inc., Astra Zeneca Plc, Daiichi Sankyo Company Limited and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited.

Lyophilization Market - Global Industry Analysis

Transparency Market Research
Lyophilization also called as freeze drying is a process of dehydration of samples, commonly used to preserve perishable substances. In pharmaceutical industries, it is used to concentrate and stabilize products into powder form. The process consists of four stages- lyophilization pretreatment, freezing the compound, primary drying process, secondary drying. 

Pretreating the products includes concentrating the product and formulation to increase the surface area. Once the product is pretreated, it is frozen using methanol or liquid nitrogen. At this stage, the compound is cooled below its triple point which is the lowest temperature at which the vapor, liquid and solid state co-exist. In the next stage of primary drying, the pressure is reduced so that water in the compound sublimates. In the last stage, the unfrozen water molecules are removed by increasing the temperature to near 0 degrees and lowering pressure for desorption.


Lyophilization is an effective preservation process and stabilization of compounds such as proteins, peptides, vaccines, blood fractions, enzymes, microbes, nutraceuticals and other biopharmaceutical products. They help in extending the shelf life while maintaining the functionality and integrity of the biomolecules. Due to reduction of storage space and weight, they also make the handling easier and avoid the need of cold storage.

Lyophilization market can be segmented based on product type as follows:
  • Lyophilization units
  • Manifold freeze dryer
  • Rotary freeze dryer
  • Tray style freeze dryer
  • Lyophilization services

The lyophilization market will be driven by its wide scope of application, the advances in the pharmaceutical industry such as new drug discovery and technological advances in the lyophilization methods such as computer controlled process and automation in loading and unloading by robotics. These augmentations will make the overall process easier and will help in expanding the scope of application. The lyophilization instruments are expensive and high electricity consumption unit. Apart from these factors the process time for lyophilization is also long. But considering the merits, the restraints do not drastically affect the market growth.

Some of the key players in the lyophilization units market are ABB Ltd., W.L. Gore & Associates, Inc. and GEA Niro while Lyophilization Technology, Inc., GenScript, Inc. Irvine Pharmaceutical Services are some of the pyophilization services providers.

Prenatal And New-Born Genetic Testing Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends And Forecast, 2013 - 2019

Pharmaceuticals copy
Prenatal diagnosis or prenatal testing is performed for checking the diseases in a fetus or embryo before it is born. Although most of pregnancies end giving birth to a healthy baby but there remains chances where a child patient is born with defects.  Hence, the primary aim of the test refers to the detection of birth defects such as Down syndrome, chromosomal abnormalities, neural tube defects and genetic diseases.  In addition, diseases such as sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, cystic fibrosis are others are also identified using prenatal diagnosis. Sometimes tests are done to determine high risk pregnancies early so that a delivery can be scheduled accordingly. Presently, prenatal testing is also performed for determining the characteristics generally not related to birth defects.  Prenatal diagnosis is performed primarily for two reasons that include timely execution of medical or surgical treatment and to give parents the chance for abortion at an early stage. For, instance an ultrasound performed at 18 to 20 days of pregnancy can detect many physical changes.
Blood tests are done for performing new born screening. Through new born screening many disorders can be treated at an early stage.  Level of phenylketonuria is (PKU) is checked through blood test. PKU is a genetic disorder that is caused by the mutation in the gene for hepatic enzyme that is necessary to metabolize the amino acids. Hence if PKU is left untreated then it might cause mental impairment. Moreover, thyroid level is also checked, because hypothyroidism leads to disability in the growth. Down’s syndrome is a commonly occurring genetic disease that can be identified through prenatal testing. Amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling is performed to examine the number of chromosomes.
Prenatal testing and newborn screening market is witnessing a considerable rise owing to rise in genetic disorders. Early diagnosis can avoid the complications with the help of prompt treatment. However, there are disparities related to the tests that are restraining the growth of this market. Major players capturing the market space include Genzyme Genetics, Biogen, Ferring Pharmaceuticals, Novartis AG and others.

Pneumonia Drugs & Vaccines Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends And Forecast, 2013 - 2019

Transparency Market Research
Pneumonia is a common lung infection caused by a variety of microorganisms such as bacteria, virus, fungi and parasites. In pneumonia the air sacs of lungs that are known as alveoli are filled with fluid or pus causing inflammation. The common symptoms of pneumonia are cough with phlegm, sneezing, sore throat, chills, fever and trouble in breathing. Pneumonia is usually a mild disease but under certain situations can be lethal. Children, elderly people and those with recent viral infections, lung disease and heart disease are at higher risk of developing pneumonia compared to general population. Pneumonia is of different types depending on the way it has been acquired by people such community acquired pneumonia (CAP), hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) and healthcare associated pneumonia as patient may also develop pneumonia during their visits to other healthcare setting such as nursing homes, dialysis centers and outpatient clinics. Others are aspiration pneumonia and atypical pneumonia. Pneumonia is one of the most common hospital acquired infection.
The global market for pneumonia is segmented broadly into treatment drugs and prevention vaccines market. Usually antibiotics used to treat pneumonia include cephalosporins, penicillin, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, amoxicillin, clavulanic acid and vancomycin. Earlier, penicillin was widely used to treat pneumonia caused by bacteria pnemococcal pneumonia but due to wide spread use of broad spectrum antibiotics has resulted into significant drug resistance. Penicillin is still used but only after confirming the sensitivity of the bacteria towards this antibiotic. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine such as PCV13 and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines such as PPV23 and Pneumovax are used to prevent pneumococcal diseases. The major players operating in this market are Sanofi, Eli Lilly, AstraZeneca, Merck & Co. Novartis, GlaxoSmithCline, Pfizer and Baxter International Inc.
The market for pneumonia drugs and vaccines is expected to grow under the impact of drivers such as increasing aging population as aging population are more susceptible to developing pneumonia and increasing prevalence of pneumonia among children. According to WHO, every year approximately 1.2 million children under the age of five years die because of pneumonia. WHO also reports only 30% of children suffering from pneumonia get required antibiotics for the treatment of pneumonia. This disease is most prevalent in South Asia and African countries.

Pharmacovigilance Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends And Forecast, 2013 - 2019

Pharmaceuticals copy
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), pharmacovigilance is defined as a series of actions performed to assess, detect and prevent any possible adverse effects of pharmaceutical products, and minimize the medication risks. It majorly focuses on the assessment of adverse drug reactions, which are lethal responses to drugs that occur at the doses used for treatment of a disease or used in the modification of physiological functioning. Medication issues such as drug overdose and drug abuse are also checked for, as they too may lead to some adverse drug reactions. Pharmacovigilance aims at ensuring optimum patient care and safety with respect to the usage of medications and also provides reliable information about efficient evaluation of the possible hazard and benefit profile of drugs.
The WHO Collaborating Centre for International Drug Monitoring, Uppsala Monitoring Centre, (UMC), in Sweden promotes pharmacovigilance at a country level. By the end of the year 2010, 134 countries had adopted the WHO pharmacovigilance programme. The information received from healthcare professionals, patients and medical literature prove to be necessary for conducting pharmacovigilance studies.
The market for pharmacovigilance has a huge demand as all pharmaceutical license holders need to understand and comply with its guidelines. This market can be segmented based on the different technologies including drug safety database systems, signal detection systems and others. Regulatory guidelines for the same are stated by the U.S. FDA, EMA and other regulatory bodies. These regulations and guidelines provide a framework for the companies to follow in order to carry out pharmacovigilance activities.
The major factors driving growth of this market are need for efficient drugs, continuous technological upgradations, increased focus on patient care and patient safety, and intensification of safety regulations by various regulatory bodies. These factors boost the uptake of pharmacovigilance systems by pharmaceutical companies. Reluctance of companies towards adoption of new technologies, lack of proper education and training to the resources, and lack of awareness about prevailing pharmacovigilance systems might hamper the growth of the market. Currently, majority of the companies are outsourcing their pharmacovigilance operations for the purpose of cost effectiveness. The scope of these systems can be further enhanced by integrating them with other data sources such as clinical databases and medical records. These advanced and novel approaches further enhance the decision making on safety and efficacy of drugs, and provide relevant and reliable information.
