Market Definition
Otic medicines are medications that are used to treat ear infections. Otitis media is an inflammation of the middle ear that causes eustachian tube dysfunction after a viral upper respiratory tract infection. The eustachian tube is a tube that connects the middle ear to the throat and the ear. It causes a fluid build-up behind the eardrum by preventing fluid drainage from the middle ear. When the fluid in the ear does not drain, an infection develops in the ear, resulting in acute otitis media.
Otic Drugs Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Rising prevalence rate of ear infection
The rising prevalence of ear infection across the globe is estimated to expand the market's growth rate. Due to inflammation and fluid build-up behind the eardrum, ear infections can sometimes cause hearing loss. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), nearly 2.5 billion people will suffer hearing loss by 2050, with at least 700 million requiring hearing rehabilitation.
- Increasing investment for healthcare infrastructure
Another significant factor influencing the growth rate of otic drugs market is the rising healthcare expenditure which helps in improving its infrastructure. Also, various government organizations aims to improve the healthcare infrastructure by increasing funding and this will further influence the market dynamics.
Furthermore, rising use of external objects such as cotton swabs and hairpins that cause ear infections and growing addiction of smoking will expand the otic drugs market. Additionally, growing incidence of viral infections and increasing number of government initiatives to spread awareness are estimated to enhance the market's growth rate.
Opportunities
- Increase in the number of research and development activities
The otic drugs market's growth is fueled by an increase in the number of research and development activities. This will provide beneficial opportunities for the otic drugs market growth. For instance, Sandoz Inc. introduced Ciprofloxacin 0.3 percent + Dexamethasone 0.1 percent otic solution 7.5mL ear drops in the United States in August 2020 to treat bacterial infections in the middle ear outer ear canal. As a result, product releases like these may positively impact market growth over the predicted period. Smith+Nephew will introduce the first commercial procedure of the Tula System, an in-office option for the installation of tympanostomy tubes in patients with ear infections, in May 2020, bolstering the market.
Moreover, an increase in the number of emerging markets and new product launches will further provide beneficial opportunities for the otic drugs market growth during the forecast period.
