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.

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.
