The Europe Sodium-dependent Glucose Cotransporter 2 Market size is estimated at USD 1.30 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 2.02 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 9.10% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially impacted the Sodium-dependent Glucose Cotransporter 2 Market. People with diabetes have a weak immune system so, with COVID-19, the immune system gets weaker very fast. People with diabetes have more chances to get into serious complications rather than normal people. The manufacturers of diabetes drugs have taken care during COVID-19 to deliver the medications to diabetes patients with the help of local governments. NovoNordisk stated on their website that 'Since the start of COVID-19, our commitment to patients, our employees and the communities where we operate has remained unchanged, we continue to supply our medicines and devices to people living with diabetes and other serious chronic diseases, safeguard the health of our employees, and take actions to support doctors and nurses as they work to defeat COVID-19.'
SGLT-2 inhibitors also called gliflozins are a class of medicine used to lower high blood glucose levels in people with type 2 diabetes. SGLT-2 drugs have a significant role in managing cardiovascular risk factors including blood pressure, glycemia, weight, cardiac function, and antiinflammatory activity. Diabetic drugs have been potential candidates for treating diabetic patients affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection during the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the diabetes category, the estimated cost per hospital admission during the first wave of COVID-19 in Europe ranged from EUR 25,018 for type 2 diabetes patients in good glycemic control to EUR 57,244 for type 1 diabetes patients in poor glycemic control, reflecting a higher risk of intensive care, ventilator support, and a longer hospital stay. The estimated cost for patients without diabetes was EUR 16,993. The expected total direct expenditures for COVID-19 secondary care in Europe were 13.9 billion euros. Diabetes treatment thus accounted for 23.5% of total expenditures.
The European region had witnessed an alarming increase in the prevalence of diabetes, in recent years. Diabetes is associated with many health complications. Patients with diabetes require many corrections throughout the day for maintaining nominal blood glucose levels, such as medications or ingestion of additional carbohydrates by monitoring their blood glucose levels.
Therefore, owing to the aforementioned factors the studied market is anticipated to witness growth over the analysis period.
According to the IDF, the overall diabetes expenditure in Europe among the population aged 20-79 years was USD 156 billion, and it is expected to increase to USD 174 billion by 2040. These figures indicate that approximately 9% of the total healthcare expenditure is spent on diabetes in Europe. The rapidly increasing incidence and prevalence of diabetic patients and healthcare expenditure are indications of the increasing usage of diabetic drugs.
SGLT-2 inhibitor drugs are available internationally and are recommended for use when escalation of treatment for type 2 diabetes is required, along with lifestyle management. Oral agents are typically the first medications used in treating type 2 diabetes due to their wide range of efficacy, safety, and mechanisms of action. SGLT-2 inhibitor drugs help diabetes patients control their condition and lower the risk of diabetes complications. People with diabetes may need to take anti-diabetic drugs for their whole lives to control their blood glucose levels and avoid hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Oral anti-diabetic agents present the advantages of easier management and lower cost, so they became an attractive alternative to insulin with better acceptance, which enhances adherence to the treatment.
The government and the companies are working towards better diabetes management. For instance, the National Service Framework (NSF) program is improving services by setting national standards to drive up service quality and tackle variations in care. The Association of British HealthTech Industries (ABHI) launched a diabetes section, enabling diabetes technology companies to work together in the first forum of its kind. Such advantages helped in the market growth.
Diabetes is a significant health problem and one of the extraordinary challenges for healthcare systems all over Germany. The prevalence of known type 1 & 2 diabetes in the German adult population is very high, along with many patients not yet diagnosed with the disease. Due to an aging population and unhealthy lifestyle, the prevalence of type 2 diabetes is expected to increase steadily over the next few years. High-quality care, including adequate monitoring, control of risk factors, and active self-management, are the key factors for preventing complications in German patients with type 2 diabetes.
The disease's growing incidence, prevalence, and progressive nature encouraged the development of new drugs to provide additional treatment options for diabetic patients. Non-insulin treatments, used as first-line therapies for patients with type 2 diabetes, currently capture more than half the sales in the anti-diabetic market. Over the past decade, two important classes entered this market: dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2). These agents work in various ways to reduce blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. Some stimulate insulin secretion by the pancreas, and others improve the responsiveness of cells to insulin or prevent glucose production by the liver. Others slow the absorption of glucose after meals.
According to the German Diabetes Centre (DDZ), about 8.5 million people in Germany are affected by diabetes. The number of people with type 2 diabetes in Germany will continue to increase over the next twenty years. German law requires public plans to cap out-of-pocket health care costs and to cover all medically necessary treatment, including insulin. Germany is one of the developed countries with advanced healthcare facilities. Moreover, reimbursement and pricing policies are highly regulated, which drives the market. The roll-out of many new products, increasing international research collaborations in technology advancement, and increasing awareness about diabetes among people are some of the market opportunities for the players in the German market.
