The nasal spray market size was USD 25.30 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow from USD 27.47 billion in 2023 to USD 49.54 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 8.8% during 2023-2030. North America dominated the global market with a share of 44.11% in 2022.


A nasal spray is a device used for nasal drug delivery in the nasal cavities. They are used to treat conditions, such as allergic rhinitis, cold, asthma, and central nervous system disorders. The device consists of drug substances in the form of a solution of excipients. There are different types of products available in the market, such as corticosteroids, salt water solutions, topical decongestants, antihistamines, and others. Corticosteroids, also known as nasal steroids, are usually the first-line therapies for allergies. These sprays are used to treat nasal congestion, sneezing, watery eyes, and runny nose. Many of these sprays are available over-the-counter.


Rising infections, as well as allergic conditions, are majorly driving the growth of the market. Additionally, certain advantages offered by these products, such as efficient and painless drug delivery, easy availability, and better patient convenience are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. Nevertheless, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies have increased their investment in R&D initiatives to develop new products to treat several diseases like CNS disorders or coronavirus.



  • For instance, in February 2022, GLENMARK PHARMACEUTICALS LTD. launched Nitric Oxide Nasal Spray (FabiSpray) in partnership with SaNOtize, a pharmaceutical company for the treatment of adult patients with COVID-19 in India. Such initiatives by manufacturers are projected to boost market growth in the near future.


COVID-19 IMPACT


Drop in Sales of Nasa Spray Products During the COVID-19 Pandemic Impeded Market Growth


In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the export and import of healthcare products globally. Furthermore, some of the market players witnessed a decline in their revenues for products due to weaker cold and flu season as a result of the pandemic and social distancing.



  • For instance, GSK plc witnessed a decline of 8.3% in 2020 as compared to 2019 for its Avamys/ Veramyst nasal spray product. In addition, AstraZeneca witnessed a decline of 32.1% in 2020 as compared to 2019 for its Pulmicort nasal spray product.


However, in 2021, the sales for these products improved, although they were below the sales from 2019. Moreover, in 2022, the market witnessed a rapid growth in its revenue and is projected to grow at a significant growth rate over the forecast period due to a number of product launches in the market.              


Nasal Spray Market Trends


Increasing Funding by Private Organizations for R&D Activities to Propel Market Growth


Pharmaceutical companies are involved in developing new medicines to prevent and treat life-threatening infectious viruses, which are some of the key market trends. Various private organizations are increasingly providing funds for these research activities carried out by pharma companies. Such strategic initiatives boost the market growth.


For instance, in April 2022, SK Bioscience, a vaccine manufacturing company, announced that it has partnered with IAVI (International AIDS Vaccine Initiative), a nonprofit research organization, for the development of an antiviral nasal spray based on a protein developed by David Baker at the University of Washington. SK Bioscience also noted that it received a USD 2.2 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to IAVI for the project. This funding will be used for the production of this product, and process development is already underway. Hence, such initiatives are the key trends of the market.


Furthermore, increasing healthcare spending and improved healthcare infrastructure are factors influencing the global nasal spray market trends.

Nasal Spray Market Growth Factors


Increasing Prevalence of Respiratory Disorders to Surge Market Growth


Occupational lung diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and pulmonary hypertension are a few of the most common chronic respiratory diseases. These diseases affect the airways and other structures of the lungs. Factors such as tobacco smoking, air pollution, chemicals, dust, and lower respiratory infections during childhood are factors attributing towards the increasing prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases.



  • For instance, according to the data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the prevalence of asthma increased from 7.4% in 2001 to 7.7% in 2021.


However, there are various forms of treatments, such as these products, that can help open the air passages, improve shortness of breath, and help control symptoms. Thus, with the increasing prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases, the demand for these products is projected to increase, thereby significantly contributing to the expansion of the global nasal spray market.


Strong Pipeline of Potential Candidates and their Expected Product Launches is Anticipated to Drive Market Growth


A large number of companies, such as GSK plc, Viatris Inc., Emergent Devices, Inc., Cipla, Inc., and many more, are operating in the global market. These companies are focused on launching new products in the market to substantially increase access to this life-saving medicine as well as to help combat endemic crisis. An increasing number of product approvals from federal agencies to treat infectious and allergic conditions is significantly contributing to the nasal spray market growth.



  • For instance, in March 2023, Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced the approval of naloxone hydrochloride nasal spray, a generic version of Narcan from the U.S. FDA, to treat known or suspected opioid overdose emergencies.

  • In addition, in March 2023, Pfizer, Inc. announced that it had received approval from the U.S. FDA for ZAVZPRET, the first and only calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist nasal spray for acute migraine treatment in adults.


Such an increase in the number of product approvals and launches in these products will enhance the global demand for nasal sprays.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Side Effects Associated with these Products May Hinder Market Growth


Different types of these products can cause different side effects. However, certain factors, such as the increased risk of recurrent respiratory and CNS depression as well as increased risk of cardiovascular effects and reported cases of adverse reactions due to these products, such as nasal dryness, nasal inflammation, and nasal congestion, are restraining the growth of the global market. The most common side effects associated with these drugs include cataracts, a burning sensation in the nose, a bitter taste in the mouth, and dry mouth. Furthermore, the use of compounded drugs, which the FDA does not approve, can create a risk for patients.


For instance, in February 2022, the U.S. FDA raised concerns about the high risk of misuse, adverse events, and abuse associated with compounded ketamine nasal spray for home use.


The regulatory authority claims that healthcare specialists should be aware of the risk factors associated with compounded ketamine nasal spray. Such factors might hamper market growth to a certain extent.


Nasal Spray Market Segmentation Analysis


By Product Type Analysis


Growing Purchase of Salt Water Solutions Products Led the Salt Water Solutions Segment Growth


Based on product type, the market is segmented into corticosteroids, salt water solutions, topical decongestants, antihistamines, and others. 


The corticosteroids segment dominated the market in 2022 and is projected to grow at a significant CAGR over 2023-2030. The corticosteroid nasal sprays are used in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (hay fever), sinusitis, and nasal polyps. The growing prevalence of these diseases, along with the easy availability and commercialization of cost-effective generic steroid sprays, drives segment growth.



  • For instance, according to the data published in Frontiers Media S.A. Journal in April 2022, Allergic rhinitis (AR) affects around 400 million people globally. The research also stated that prevalence of AR has increased over the years, owing to the increased urbanization and environmental pollutants.


Moreover, the saltwater solutions segment is projected to account for the fastest growth rate during the forecast period. The salt water solutions products do not contain any medication, so they can easily be purchased without requiring a prescription, thus driving the segment's growth.

The adult segment accounted for the highest market revenue in 2022 owing to the high prevalence of respiratory diseases in patients over 45 years and the growing emphasis of key players on launching new products for adults.


The pediatric segment is estimated to grow at the fastest growth rate during the projected period owing to the new product launches in the market for children who suffer from nasal congestion due to colds or allergies.

Growing Number of Drug Stores & Retail Pharmacies Propelled the Drug Stores & Retail Pharmacies Segment Growth


By distribution channel, the market is segmented into drug stores & retail pharmacies, hospital pharmacies, and online pharmacies.


In 2022, the drug stores & retail pharmacies segment accounted for the highest revenue share due to growth in the number of drug stores & retail pharmacies offering nasal spray products. For instance, according to a August 2022 report by Pharmacy Times, 88.9% of the U.S. population, lives within a distance of 5 miles from a community pharmacy. Such trends drive the segmental growth in the forecast period. In addition, hospital pharmacies accounted for the second-highest market share due to the availability of different types of these products.
