Global Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2025-2037

Auto-injectors Market size was over USD 9.27 billion in 2024 and is poised to cross USD 41.88 billion by the end of 2037, witnessing more than 12.3% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of auto-injectors is estimated at USD 10.18 billion.

The reason behind the growth is impelled by the rising cases of rheumatoid arthritis. Hand disabilities can make it more difficult for individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to use syringes to give medication as part of their therapy therefore, auto-injectors could potentially mitigate this problem as by using them patients can administer etanercept a medicine used to treat rheumatoid arthritis on their own, in the comfort of their own homes, using an auto-injection pen-like device. Globally, more than 17 million cases of rheumatoid arthritis were reported in 2020.

The growing government initiatives to increase awareness are believed to fuel the market growth. For instance, on June 2023 the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), in collaboration with allergy awareness advocates, released new guidelines outlining the most recent safety recommendations for what to do in the event of anaphylaxis and offered guidance on how to use adrenaline auto-injectors.

Auto-injectors Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  • Growing Popularity of Biosimilars and Biologics- Biological pharmaceuticals and biosimilar medications are generally brittle proteins that require the use of auto-injectors to raise the medication's therapeutic value.
  • Surging Phobia from Needles- Many people are afraid of needles and the agony that comes with injection sites therefore, for certain patients, using a small needle auto-injector can make administering medication easier which is intended to simplify, facilitate, and ease the injection process.
  • Increasing Regulatory Approvals- For instance, in May 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Cyltezo Pen which is recommended for patients who might like using an auto-injector to provide the medication required to control several chronic inflammatory illnesses.
  • Spiking Prevalence of Diabetes- Insulin jet injectors are a reliable method of delivering insulin that may even be more efficient than others for diabetics without the need for a needle by using a high-pressure air mechanism to eject a tiny mist of insulin through the skin. According to estimates, diabetes affected over 535 million people globally in 2021, and by 2045, that figure is predicted to rise to more than 780 million people.
  • Increasing Usage in Pediatric Population- A major development in pediatric medicine is the availability of an epinephrine auto-injector designed specifically for the needs of infants and toddlers that has grown in popularity for the prehospital management of severe allergic responses.

Challenges

  • Presence of Alternative Modes for Administrating Drugs - Medication administration techniques vary widely and are frequently categorized based on the site of administration, such as intravenous or oral out of which the oral administration is the recommended method for most prescribed medications. This, as a result, may limit the demand for auto-injectors.
  • Growing Fear of Needles May Limit the Adoption of Auto-injectors
  • Creating an auto-injector that can accommodate varied injection rates and volumes while maintaining safety and accuracy is a challenge.

Auto-injectors Segmentation

Disease Indication (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Diabetes, Anaphylaxis)

The anaphylaxis segment in the auto-injectors market is estimated to gain a robust revenue share of 35% in the coming years owing to the rising number of people with food allergies. Globally, food allergies are becoming more common owing to various causes, including, obesity, vitamin D, exposure to ambient chemicals, gut microbiota makeup, cleanliness and lack of exposure to microbiological factors, and environmental chemical exposure. Moreover, experts believe that the number of people with food allergies is expanding, as foods that are generally considered nutritious can be poisonous to someone with allergies. 

For certain people, a food allergy can cause anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction that happens when the immune system misinterprets a meal or substance as hazardous. This reaction can happen minutes after exposure. Additionally, anaphylaxis is a serious allergic reaction that can be fatal and, if treated right away, may usually be controlled. All these factors are expected to drive the demand for auto-injectors as they are recognized as emergency anaphylaxis therapy. For instance, more than 10 million Americans suffered from food allergies as of 2021.

Product Type (Disposable, Reusable)

Auto-injectors market from the disposable segment is set to garner a notable share. Disposable auto-injectors for prefilled syringes are simple to use and meant for patients to administer fixed-dose injections subcutaneously. Moreover, more than 60% of single-use auto-injectors are disposable and the market is expected to grow owing to the increasing adoption of innovative technologies.
