According to Nova one advisor, the global Animal Drug Compounding market size is expected to hit around USD 4.0 billion by 2030 from valued at USD 2.9 billion in 2022 and growing at a CAGR of 8.0% from 2022 to 2030.
Increase in demand for companion animals, rise in the number of licensed veterinarians or pharmacists, and limited number of FDA-approved drug products for several species and conditions are anticipated to boost the global animal drug compounding market during the forecast period.
Intermittent drug shortages and commercial unavailability of FDA-approved drug products drive the need of compounded preparations within veterinary practice. In species such as zoo animals, laboratory animals, exotic pets, wildlife, aquaria, and non-food aquaculture animals, the use of compounded preparations is paramount. Additionally, regulatory bodies are in the process of considering the critical need of access to compounded preparations within these species, which is a key factor driving the market.
Drug compounding is a process of mixing, combining, and altering the ingredients for developing tailor-made medications for animals. Compounded animal drugs are manufactured by veterinarians and pharmacists. Drug compounding is also considered when there are no appropriate drugs available for the treatment of a sick animal. Pharmacists consider two ways for compounding an animal drug: extra-label drugs and bulk ingredients. Compounded drugs are economical and most viable options for pet owners without insurance.
Veterinarians offer medical care through compounded drugs for various animal species such as zoo animals, exotic animals, and wild animals. Compounded drugs deliver vital medications to a patient; however, these drugs are not approved by the U.S. FDA.

Ingredient Providers Helping Companies Innovate in Compounding for Exotic Animals
Companies in the animal drug compounding market are increasing efforts to maintain a full line of chemicals and supplies to support veterinary compounding. Letco Medical - a supplier of pharmaceutical ingredients, is gaining recognition for maintaining a formula database, which helps to find the right mixture for any animal. Manufacturers in the animal drug compounding market are working closely with ingredient suppliers who provide APIs, bases, flavors, and formulas that support veterinary compounding.
Manufacturers are focusing on quality assurance and compliance to stringent standards to bolster their credibility in the market landscape. Apart from dogs and cats, companies are increasing their compounding capabilities for horses, birds and other exotic animals that swim and fly.
Innovations in Veterinary-Anesthesia, Pain-Management Medications Boost Market Growth
Inorganic strategies, such as mergers and acquisitions are gaining prominence in the animal drug compounding market. Wedgewood Pharmacy - a PCAB-accredited compounding pharmacy has announced the acquisition of Wildlife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its subsidiary ZooPharm to leverage incremental opportunities with innovations in veterinary-anesthesia and pain-management medications.
Manufacturers in the animal drug compounding market are extending their care for resident wildlife, non-domestic species, companion animals, and captive exotic breeds. They are increasing efforts to develop teams, co-ordinate resources, and expand customer relationships to boost company credentials. Companies are focusing on research and development to advance in specialized medications for managing aquariums, wildlife management organizations, conservation facilities, and private ranches.
Flavored Suspensions, Custom Medications Aid in Easy Administration of Pets
Custom-compounded medications have become a fast-growing phenomenon in the animal drug compounding market. Erie Pharmacy is gaining popularity for its comprehensive product portfolio in custom oral capsules, flavored suspensions, and compounded tablets. Since compounded drugs can be a life-saving option for difficult to medicate pets, owners are seeking consultation from veterinarians for compounding and customizing the strength of medication doses.
Factory made medication in many cases do not suit cats and dogs. Hence, companies in the animal drug compounding market are offering custom services in drug development to alter the medications as per specific doses and formulations that are easier to administer in pets. The combination of several ingredients has led to innovations in easy to swallow oral capsules. Flavored suspensions are serving as palatable options for pets that involve flavor enhancers such as fish, beef, peanut butter, and banana, among others.
