Overview


According to FutureWise analysis the market for compounding pharmacy in 2023 is US$ 9.16 billion, and is expected to reach US$ 14.85 billion by 2031 at a CAGR of 6.2%.

A pharmacy run by a licensed pharmacist, licensed physician, or someone working under a licensed pharmacist is referred to as a compounding pharmacy. It differs slightly from a typical pharmacy. However, the primary function of a compounding pharmacy is to create medications that are recommended by a doctor in accordance with the individual needs of each patient. It involves creating a medication's customized formulation to meet a patient's particular demands, which cannot be satisfied by commercially accessible medications. This may be done for medical purposes, such as to deliver the medication in a new way (for example, switching from a tablet to a liquid), to avoid a non-active ingredient to which the patient is allergic, or to administer a precise dose that isn't currently commercially accessible.

These custom-made medications are used for pain relief, dermatology, and hormone replacement therapy. Additionally, it can occasionally be utilized as a dietary supplement. The Compounding Pharmacies Market is anticipated to be driven by the increasing number of patent expirations, increased life expectancy, and the growing elderly population. Additionally, it is anticipated that the rising drug failure rate and the increased public awareness of the advantages of compounded medications will fuel the market.

Recent development by key players in compounding pharmacy market:

In July 2022- Fagron purchased a 503B outsourcing facility in Boston from Fresenius Kabi. The Fagron sterile compounding network has grown throughout the United States.

Due to increasing medical drug shortages worldwide, rising costs of branded prescription alternatives, and restricted drug accessibility, the compound pharmaceutical market is predicted to grow. The need for compounding pharmacies will grow as drug failure rates rise. The market will develop due to more individuals adopting these personalized treatments and becoming more aware of the benefits of compounded pharmaceuticals. Moreover, the growing vulnerability of older persons to chronic conditions like cardiovascular disease has resulted in a large increase in the demand for specialized therapies over time. Compounding pharmacies are a special kind of pharmacy that creates personalized drugs in response to each patient's particular needs. It also allows simple administration of drugs via transdermal patches, lollipops, and others. Patients with serious illnesses like cancer who are unable to swallow a medication can benefit from compound pharmacy medications. The increased use of compound pharmacies for chronic illness is anticipated to expand the revenue of this target medicine. However, the same safety, quality, and effectiveness guarantees in authorized pharmaceuticals are not present in compounded medications, despite the fact that they can help patients with serious medical needs. Patients who take compounded drugs are unnecessarily exposed to possibly harmful health risks. Compound drugs are not FDA-approved; thus, the FDA does not evaluate their effectiveness, quality, or safety before putting them on the market. Furthermore, sloppy compounding techniques can result in serious drug quality problems like contamination or a drug with too much of an active ingredient. This could lead to severe patient injury or even death. The factors mentioned above are expected to constrain the market growth.
