Drugs (Salbutamol, Guaifenesin, Acetaminophen, Prednisone)
Based on drugs, the prednisone segment in the asbestosis treatment market is predicted to hold the largest revenue share of about 45% during the forecast period. Prednisone is a synthetic glucocorticoid that is used to suppress inflammation and weaken the immune system. The liver converts the prodrug prednisone into prednisolone, which is the medication's active component. Prednisone has no biological effects before its conversion to prednisolone through hepatic metabolism. Prednisone's use is expected to rise significantly throughout the forecast period as it is an anti-inflammatory that also helps reduce inflammation caused by sickness. 19,898,457 prescriptions were written in the US in 2021.
Route of Administration (Oral, Inhalation, Intravenous)
Based on the route of administration, the inhalation segment in the asbestosis treatment market is estimated to hold the largest revenue share of about 40% during the forecast period. The growth of the segment is because many people favor inhalation to swallowing tablets or pills for delivery. It has long been established that inhaling medication is an efficient way to get medication into the lungs to treat respiratory conditions. Compared to oral pills, inhaled drugs are taken directly into the airways, allowing for a smaller dose to be given and a faster onset of action as well as fewer side effects. It is anticipated that the growing incidence of respiratory conditions such as cystic fibrosis, asthma, and COPD will propel market growth. Asthma impacted almost 25 million Americans in 2021, making up 7.7% of adults and 8.4% of children in the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

In North America, both the general public and medical experts are becoming more aware of the health concerns posed by asbestos exposure. Increased efforts in screening programs and early asbestosis discovery are the result of this knowledge. Asbestosis and other respiratory illnesses are the subject of a robust research and development environment in the region. To improve the treatment of asbestosis, academic institutions, research groups, and pharmaceutical corporations actively participate in clinical trials, investigations, and partnerships throughout North America. This research and development endeavor stimulates creativity, advances the creation of novel treatments, and broadens the range of available remedies. In 2022, the United States incurred a total of 679.4 billion dollars on research and development. This sum represents an increase of almost 5.5% over the 643.8 billion US dollars that were spent the year prior.
