United States Transdermal Patch Market Outlook 2020 - 55 Patches in Clinical Pipeline, 23 Patches in Preclinical Stage & 32 Marketed Patches - Research and Markets

DUBLIN, July 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "US Transdermal Patch Market Outlook 2020" report to their offering.

The market for transdermal products has skyrocketed since its innovation and is likely to continue for the foreseeable future. An increasing number of Transdermal drug delivery (TDD) products continue to deliver real therapeutic benefit to patients around the world. The FDA approved a total of 32 transdermal products over the past 20 years, the majority of which use passive transport that allows the drug to be continually absorbed into the skin via natural processes.

Transdermal patches presently donning the market are formulated in accordance with requirement of the medicinal therapy. They can be worn for as low as 8 hours to as long as 7 days depending on the therapeutic indication. These patches are secured with adhesives, which are designed to adhere comfortably to the skin which in turn allows a patient to use the patches for as long as is indicated by his or her physician. Transdermal drug delivery provides excellent control of the rate of delivery directly into the bloodstream. It also offers a predictable pharmacokinetic profile and constant drug levels over extended periods of time without the extreme peak/trough fluctuations inherent in oral administration with the inherent power of discontinuation of therapy immediately by simply removing the patch.

Technologies behind transdermal patches are improving continuously and have been introduced for different indication in US. They have been introduced for new indications for which no transdermal product was available allowing them to occupy major market shares. Increase in demand for better therapeutics at affordable prices is expected to be the main factor behind their growth in US market.

Improved material science, advanced manufacturing capabilities and high acceptance rates will further propel growth in this segment. However, some immediate issues like lesser coverage of indications have yet to be overcome in coming years. Another issue is technology related, which has definitely improved, but needs to be improved in order to come forth with diseases like HIV infection. Overall, transdermal patch market in US is expected to grow continuously reflecting optimistic future.
