세계의 이부프로펜 시장 : 산업규모, 점유율, 동향, 기회, 예측, 제품 유형별, 용도별, 지역별, 경쟁별(2020-2030년)

The Global Ibuprofen Market was valued at USD 534.45 Million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 700.03 Million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.80%. Ibuprofen, a widely used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is recognized for its affordability and effectiveness in managing pain, fever, and inflammation across various therapeutic areas including arthritis, menstrual cramps, dental issues, and the common cold. Available in several formulations such as tablets, capsules, syrups, and topical applications, ibuprofen's accessibility makes it a go-to treatment option for both prescription and over-the-counter use. The market's growth is driven by the increasing incidence of chronic pain and age-related disorders, particularly in the elderly population. As life expectancy rises globally, so does the demand for safe, reliable, and cost-effective analgesics. The manufacturing landscape is highly competitive, with numerous global and regional players engaged in both active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) production and finished dosage development, contributing to a price-sensitive market environment.

Key Market Drivers

Growth in Healthcare Industry

The sustained expansion of the global healthcare industry is a key driver of the ibuprofen market. The U.S. alone spends nearly USD 3.5 trillion annually on healthcare, while healthcare expenditure in Europe comprises around 12% of GDP. In contrast, BRIC nations allocate an average of 6% of GDP to health services. This growing investment in healthcare infrastructure, combined with improved access to treatment and the increasing emphasis on affordable care, supports rising demand for over-the-counter and prescription medications like ibuprofen. Known for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and fever-reducing effects, ibuprofen remains a trusted first-line treatment option for mild to moderate pain and inflammatory conditions. Companies such as IOL Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals, which supplies about one-third of the global ibuprofen API, are expanding their product portfolios to meet growing demand fueled by the rising prevalence of lifestyle-related ailments like arthritis, chronic headaches, and musculoskeletal disorders.

Key Market Challenges

Safety & Side Effect Concerns

Despite its widespread usage and therapeutic benefits, ibuprofen faces notable challenges due to safety concerns and potential side effects. As an NSAID, ibuprofen is linked to gastrointestinal issues, particularly when used at high doses or over extended periods. Common side effects include stomach irritation, ulcers, and bleeding, which pose heightened risks for elderly patients or individuals with pre-existing GI conditions. In response, healthcare providers are increasingly recommending alternative treatments or co-prescribing gastroprotective agents to mitigate these risks. This shift in prescribing behavior could dampen demand for ibuprofen and encourage the use of other analgesic options, especially in vulnerable patient populations.

Key Market Trends

Expansion of E-Pharmacy

The growing prominence of e-pharmacy platforms is reshaping the global ibuprofen market by revolutionizing how medications are purchased and delivered. With digital transformation accelerating across the healthcare sector, online pharmacies are gaining traction as a preferred distribution channel for OTC medications like ibuprofen. Companies such as Amazon, Reliance, Tata 1mg, and PharmEasy are scaling operations in response to rising demand for convenience, competitive pricing, and timely access to medicines. In India, the e-pharmacy market was expected to expand sevenfold to USD 2.7 billion by 2023, reflecting broader shifts in consumer behavior and increased internet accessibility. This trend is enhancing market penetration, particularly in underserved regions, while also intensifying competition among digital pharmacy players seeking to dominate this growing segment.
