What Are The Core Factors Supporting Growth In The Tacrolimus Market?
The tacrolimus market is set to expand due to the rising number of organ transplants. Organ transplantation involves surgically substituting a dysfunctional organ with a functional one from a donor. The need for organ transplants has escalated with advancements in medical technology, improvements in surgical techniques, increased consciousness about organ donation, and improved post-transplant care. Tacrolimus plays its part in organ transplantation by controlling T-cell activation and diminishing cytokine production, preventing the immune system from rejecting the new organ. As an illustration, in January 2024, the US Department of Health and Human Services reported that organ transplants from living and deceased donors amounted to 46,632, reflecting a surge of 8.7% compared to the numbers in 2022 and a rise of 12.7% from 2021. Consequently, the uptick in organ transplant procedures is fueling growth in the tacrolimus market.
