Asthma is a non-communicable, chronic inflammatory lung disorder of the airways. Airways hyper-responsiveness leads to recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and cough. Asthma is largely reversible as compared to other obstructive lung diseases. Allergy is the strongest risk factor for asthma. Moreover, asthma can be triggered by exposure of irritants, exercise, β blockers, cold air, animals, and dust. The chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. COPD includes emphysema; a complex lung disease characterized by damage to alveoli and chronic bronchitis; a chronic inflammation to lower respiratory track. Tobacco smoking is the major cause for COPD. In addition, passive smoking, occupational exposure, and ambient air pollution are risk factors for COPD.
The asthma and COPD can be diagnosed with physical examination and several tests such as X-ray, sputum eosinophils, and nitric oxide test. Asthma and COPD can be treated with inhaled corticosteroids, leukotriene modifiers, and theophylline. However, acute respiratory attack can be controlled with the short-acting beta agonists and anticholinergic drugs.
The growth of the global Asthma and COPD Drugs Market is majorly driven by the increase in prevalence of asthma and COPD. For instance, according to world health organisation (WHO), asthma affected an estimated 262 million people and caused 46,1000 deaths in 2019. Furthermore, the rise in number of COPD patients contributes to the growth of market. For instance, according to American Lung Organization, 99 million adults had chronic bronchitis and 2 million adults had emphysema in U.S. in 2018.
Moreover, advancement in respiratory diseases therapy and new product launches in the global Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Drugs Market are anticipated to contribute toward the growth of the market. For instance, in December 2020, AstraZenca, a leading manufacturer of pharmaceuticals, received EU Approval for ‘Trixeo Aerosphere’ for maintenance treatment of COPD. However, high cost of associated asthma treatment restricts the market growth during the forecast period.
