동물용 통증 관리 시장 : 시장 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석, 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Veterinary Pain Management Market was valued at USD 2.2 billion in 2024 and is projected to expand at a 6.5% CAGR from 2025 to 2034. The market growth is driven by increasing pet ownership, rising awareness of animal healthcare, and the growing trend of pet humanization. The prevalence of chronic diseases such as arthritis, cancer, and joint pain has heightened the demand for effective pain management solutions. Additionally, the number of veterinary surgical procedures continues to rise, further boosting the need for pain management drugs and devices. Livestock health has also become a critical focus due to the rising consumption of animal-based products. To maintain productivity, livestock producers are adopting pain management solutions to ensure animal well-being. The expansion of veterinary hospitals, increasing online availability of pain management drugs, and the growing role of telemedicine have further contributed to market expansion.

Veterinary pain management includes drugs and devices used to relieve acute and chronic pain in animals. In 2021, the market was valued at USD 1.9 billion, followed by USD 2 billion in 2022 and USD 2.1 billion in 2023.

By type, the segment includes NSAIDs, opioids, anesthetics, and alpha-2 agonists.

The route of administration is divided into oral, parenteral, and topical, while the distribution channel includes veterinary hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies. The dominance of drugs in the market is attributed to their easy availability and effectiveness in managing pain and inflammation. NSAIDs and opioids are widely used due to their well-established efficacy. The demand for pain management drugs continues to rise due to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as osteoarthritis, joint disorders, and cancer.

The companion animals segment led the market in 2024 and is expected to grow at a 6.4% CAGR during the forecast period. This category includes dogs, cats, horses, and other companion animals. The increasing adoption of pets and their longer lifespan have heightened the demand for veterinary pain management solutions. As pets age, they become more susceptible to chronic conditions, necessitating effective pain relief measures. The growth of pet insurance and rising veterinary expenditures have further supported the expansion of this segment.

North America dominated the global veterinary pain management market in 2024, holding a 43.9% share. The well-developed veterinary healthcare infrastructure, high pet adoption rates, and substantial livestock population contribute to the region's market strength.
