Drug Class (Alpha & Beta Blockers, Diuretics, Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors, Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers, Renin Inhibitors)
The diuretics segment is estimated to gain a robust market share of 48% in the coming years owing to its high preference among the majority of patients for hypertension treatment. Diuretics, sometimes known as water pills, help the body get rid of surplus fluids and are frequently tried as the first drug for hypertension. They are preferred by patients owing to their effectiveness, inexpensive price, and few adverse effects. For instance, Chlorthalidone is one of the most often prescribed thiazide diuretics, which has been FDA-approved since 1960. Further, studies have shown that 1 in every 3 adults having hypertension was reported to take diuretics, which is anticipated to drive the growth of the diuretics segment during the forecast period.
Type (Systemic, Pulmonary)
The pulmonary segment in the hypertension drugs market is set to garner a notable share in the near future. Pulmonary hypertension is described as high blood pressure in the blood vessels that are responsible for supplying blood to pulmonary arteries. Pulmonary disease can be life-threatening since it can damage the right side of the heart. For instance, around 500 to 100 new cases of pulmonary arterial hypertension are diagnosed in the United States every year which sums up to nearly 12 cases per million people.
Furthermore, the systemic segment is also anticipated to hold a significant share of the hypertension drug market during the forecast period. Systemic hypertension is also another form of high blood pressure in arteries carrying blood from the heart to the body.
