According to our new research study on "Gastrointestinal Drugs Market Forecast to 2031 -Global Analysis - by Drug Class, Application, Route of Administration, and Distribution Channel," the market is anticipated to grow from US$ 59.71 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach US$ 106.30 billion by 2031; it is expected to register a CAGR of 7.3% during 2023-2031. The gastrointestinal drugs market growth is attributed to the increasing prevalence gastrointestinal diseases and increasing developments of biologics for gastrointestinal diseases.
Gastrointestinal drugs are medications specifically designed to treat disorders and conditions affecting the digestive system, which includes the esophagus, stomach, intestines and related organs. These drugs can help manage symptoms, alleviate pain, and treat underlying diseases.
North America accounted for a major share of the global gastrointestinal drugs market in 2023. The North America gastrointestinal drugs market is segmented into the US, Canada, and Mexico. Increasing incidence of gastrointestinal diseases due to change in lifestyle, government support for prevention and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, presence of well-developed healthcare infrastructure, growing pharmaceutical industry, reimbursement coverage and industry giants are some of the prominent factors propelling the market growth in North America.
In North America, the US is the largest market for gastrointestinal drugs. In the US, the increasing prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases contributes directly to the demand for gastrointestinal drugs. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are two of the most common types of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). As per the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA) report, "Facts about IBD," approximately 70,000 new cases of IBD are diagnosed yearly in the US. The overall prevalence of IBD increased significantly from 2011 to 2020. The study estimates that nearly 1 in 100 Americans have IBD, and ~2.4 million Americans have some form of IBD. Additionally, the rising funding for research and development related to gastrointestinal diseases is expected to increase focus on developing novel treatment medications. Per a study titled "Endometriosis Is Undervalued," published in 2022, Crohn's disease research received US$ 90 million in funding, or US$ 130.07 per patient.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approvals are likely to support the growth of the market. For instance, in May 2020, the US FDA approved Qinlock (ripretinib) tablets as a fourth-line treatment for advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). In May 2024, Strides Pharma received approval for the generic version of Sucralfate Oral Suspension, 1gm/10 mL, from the US FDA for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases as well as stomach ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and stomach inflammation and prevent stress ulcers.
Therefore, the growth of this market is driven by the growing prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases, developments by the market players, and the presence of major market players in the US.
The US Food and Drug Administration, International Foundation for Gastrointestinal Disorders, and American college of gastroenterology, and The International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR) are among the primary and secondary sources referred to while preparing the gastrointestinal drugs market report.
