Global Hyperlipidemia Drugs Market Size (2024 - 2029)

The hyperlipidemia drugs market is experiencing growth due to an increasing target population and heightened awareness of cardiovascular disease risks associated with persistent hypercholesterolemia. The market's expansion was further supported during the COVID-19 pandemic, as the use of these drugs reduced infection severity in affected patients. New product launches, such as innovative therapies approved by regulatory bodies, are also contributing to market growth. However, challenges such as upcoming patent expirations and regulatory constraints may hinder the market's expansion over the forecast period.

Hyperlipidemia Drugs Market Analysis

The hyperlipidemia drugs market is expected to register a CAGR of 2.3% during the forecast period.

The healthcare system witnessed enormous challenges as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. All outpatient treatments were postponed or restricted during the COVID-19 pandemic to reduce the risk of viral transmission as most chronic therapies were regarded as non-urgent. However, the intake of hyperlipidemia drugs in COVID-19-affected patients reduced the severity of the infection. According to a report by UC San Diego Health published in July 2021, intake of statin medications had a 41% lower risk of in-hospital death from COVID-19. Also, the report indicated that the use of statins or an anti-hypertension medication was associated with a 32% lower risk of death among COVID-19 in patients with a history of cardiovascular disease or hypertension. Such factors helped in the market growth during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The hyperlipidemia drug market is growing at a good rate attributing to an increase in the target population and growth in awareness about risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) due to persistent hypercholesterolemia. The American Heart Association in its 2022 update on Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics showed that in 2020, around 19.05 million deaths were reported globally because of cardiovascular diseases.

Several product launches is also anticipated to drive the hyperlipidemia drugs market. For instance, In December 2021, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved Leqvio (inclisiran), the first and only small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapy to lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (also known as bad cholesterol or LDL-C) with two doses a year. Such approvals are likely to aid in the market growth.

However, the upcoming patent expiration of drugs and the regulatory frameworks are expected to slow down the market growth over the forecast period.

Hyperlipidemia Drugs Industry Segmentation

As per the scope of this report, hyperlipidemia is a condition that is caused by abnormally high lipid levels in the blood and it is the most common type of dyslipidemia. This disorder can happen due to genetic factors (primary hyperlipidemia) as well as other factors such as unhealthy lifestyle and poor diet (secondary hyperlipidemia). Statins are the first line of treatment for secondary hyperlipidemia. The hyperlipidemia market is segmented by drug class (statins, cholesterol absorption inhibitors, bile acid sequestrants, pcsk9 inhibitors, others), and geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and South America). The Market report also covers the estimated market sizes and trends of 17 countries across major regions globally. The report offers the value in USD million for the above segments.

Global Hyperlipidemia Drugs Market Size Summary

The hyperlipidemia drugs market is poised for steady growth, driven by an increasing awareness of cardiovascular disease risks associated with persistent hypercholesterolemia and a rising target population. The market's expansion is further supported by recent product launches and regulatory approvals, such as the FDA's approval of Leqvio, a novel therapy for lowering LDL cholesterol. Despite challenges posed by patent expirations and regulatory frameworks, the market is expected to benefit from ongoing clinical trials and research focused on statin treatments and other therapies aimed at reducing cardiovascular risk. Statins, in particular, are anticipated to maintain a strong presence in the market due to their effectiveness in reducing heart attack risks and their role in improving endothelial function and reducing inflammation.

North America is projected to hold a significant share of the global hyperlipidemia drugs market, attributed to the high prevalence of hypercholesterolemia, substantial healthcare expenditure, and a robust healthcare infrastructure. The region's growing obese population, coupled with increased diagnostic adoption of hyperlipidemia drugs, is expected to further propel market growth. The United States, in particular, is witnessing a rise in healthcare spending, which is anticipated to boost market demand. The market is characterized by intense competition, with major players like Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Viatris Inc., Amgen, Sanofi, AstraZeneca, and Merck & Co., Inc. leading the charge. Recent approvals and recommendations for new therapies, such as bempedoic acid, are expected to enhance market dynamics and drive growth over the forecast period.
