The electronic drug delivery systems market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
•The market size for electronic drug delivery systems has seen considerable expansion in the past few years. The growth is expected to continue, increasing from $11.15 billion in 2024 to $12.02 billion in 2025, which signifies a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%.
The escalation in the historical era is tied to the increasing occurrence of chronic diseases, an aging population, preference for non-invasive treatment among patients, managing healthcare expenses, advancements in clinical aspects, and validation.
The electronic drug delivery systems market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size for electronic drug delivery systems is set for rapid expansion in the coming years, with projections estimating a rise to $17.74 billion by 2029, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.2%.
This projected growth within the forecasted period can be attributed to a variety of factors such as the advancement in drug personalization, global increase in healthcare expenditure, a more patient-focused approach to healthcare, the rise of targeted therapies, a supportive regulatory framework, and advancement in remote patient monitoring technologies. Key trends expected to be observed within this period encompass the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the utilization of biocompatible materials and implantable devices, customization adapted to specific therapeutic areas, regulatory progress and standardization, as well as partnerships formed between pharmaceutical and tech companies.
The anticipated growth of the electronic drug delivery systems market can be attributed to the increasing occurrence of chronic diseases. A chronic disease is a long-term condition that persists for over a year and necessitates continual medical intervention. Electronic drug delivery systems are utilized to manage drug dosage and simplify dosage tracking for individuals dealing with chronic conditions. For example, data from the National Library of Medicine, a US agency, in January 2023, projected that the populace in the US above 50 years of age with at least one chronic condition would rise to 142.66 million by 2050. Hence, as chronic diseases become more rampant, they will act as a major driving factor for the growth of the electronic drug delivery system market.
