Anti-Hypertensive Drugs Market Report 2025

The anti-hypertensive drugs market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $36.66 billion in 2024 to $37.5 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to environmental and lifestyle influences, historical market competition, historical treatment preferences, economic conditions, historical global health trends.

The anti-hypertensive drugs market size is expected to see marginal growth in the next few years. It will grow to $40.41 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to cost-effectiveness and affordability, emerging therapeutic innovations, epidemiological trends, regulatory changes and approvals, aging population dynamics, healthcare policies and reimbursement changes. Major trends in the forecast period include therapeutic innovation, epidemiological shifts, regulatory landscape, healthcare policies, advancements in diagnosis and monitoring.

A sedentary lifestyle significantly contributes to the growth of the anti-hypertensive drug market. Factors such as the consumption of junk food, an inadequate healthy and balanced diet, and insufficient sleep due to irregular work shifts have led to an increase in hypertension. Hypertension is a primary cause of at least 45% of deaths from heart disease and 51% of deaths from stroke. Once diagnosed with hypertension, patients must take medication to manage their condition, depending on its severity. For instance, in May 2023, the National Health Service, a government department in England, reported that the prevalence of hypertension rises with age, starting at 9% among adults aged 16 to 44 and increasing to 60% for those aged 65 and older. This trend creates a sustained demand for anti-hypertensive products, acting as a key driver for the market's growth.

The escalating prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is expected to drive future growth in the anti-hypertensive drugs market. Cardiovascular diseases encompass a range of conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels, with risk factors including smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, and a sedentary lifestyle. Anti-hypertensive drugs play a crucial role in managing and mitigating high blood pressure, a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases in older adults. In October 2022, the National Library of Medicine projected that by 2035, 45.1% of the US population could have cardiovascular disease, with total costs reaching $1.1 trillion. Additionally, data from the World Heart Federation in May 2023 revealed 20.5 million deaths from cardiovascular diseases in 2021. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is propelling the expansion of the anti-hypertensive drugs market.

Prominent companies in the anti-hypertensive drugs market are concentrating their efforts on introducing innovative products, including Metoprolol Succinate Extended-Release Tablets, to gain a competitive advantage. Metoprolol Succinate Extended-Release Tablets serve as anti-hypertensive drugs tailored for patients with hypertension. For example, in June 2023, Granules India Limited, a pharmaceutical manufacturing company based in India, unveiled Metoprolol Succinate Extended-Release Tablets, which received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These tablets, available in strengths ranging from 25mg to 200mg, function as beta-blockers, slowing down the heart rate, easing the workload on the heart, and ultimately lowering blood pressure.

Major companies in the anti-hypertensive drugs market are concentrating on obtaining regulatory approvals to broaden their product portfolios and improve their competitiveness in the market. Regulatory approvals are the official permissions granted by government agencies that oversee the safety and efficacy of pharmaceutical products before they can be marketed and sold to consumers. For example, in March 2024, Idorsia Pharmaceuticals, a US-based pharmaceutical company, received FDA approval for its new medication, aprocitentan, branded as Tryvio. This drug is specifically intended to treat resistant hypertension in adults whose condition is not sufficiently managed by other antihypertensive medications. Aprocitentan is significant as it is the first endothelin receptor antagonist approved for this indication, representing a new therapeutic approach in the treatment of hypertension.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued guidance regarding the development of fixed-combination drugs for hypertension. This guidance primarily focuses on the clinical development of two-drug combinations comprising previously approved products. The FDA anticipates a decrease in adverse effects for combinations that include doses below each drug's maximum dose compared to single drug regimens at their maximum dose. Current medical guidelines recommend initiating patients on two drugs at less than their full doses, marking a departure from the earlier practice of starting with a single drug and titrating up to the maximum dose before introducing additional drugs. This guidance is expected to regulate the development of fixed-combination drugs for hypertension.

Anti-hypertensive drugs constitute a category of medications utilized in the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). The primary objective of antihypertensive therapy is to prevent the adverse effects associated with elevated blood pressure, such as myocardial infarction and stroke.

The key therapeutic classes of anti-hypertensive drugs include diuretics, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, beta-blockers, alpha-blockers, calcium channel blockers, renin inhibitors, and vasodilators. Diuretics, commonly known as water pills, work by increasing the elimination of water and salt from the body through urine. Various sources of hypertension encompass primary and secondary hypertension, both of which are addressed through treatment modalities in hospitals, clinics, and home care settings.
