The biguanides market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $4.79 billion in 2023 to $4.96 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.6%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including an increase in demand for oral hypoglycemic drugs, the growth of the geriatric population, rising obesity rates, and heightened awareness about diabetes management.
The biguanides market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.76 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is expected to be fueled by factors such as the increasing adoption of combination therapies, advancements in drug delivery technologies, rising investment in research and development, expanding healthcare expenditure, and broadening applications in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome. Significant trends projected for this period include a heightened focus on developing extended-release formulations, a growing preference for fixed-dose combination therapies, expanding applications in oncology, and the emergence of novel biguanides with improved efficacy and safety profiles.
The increase in diabetes cases is anticipated to drive the expansion of the biguanides market in the foreseeable future. Diabetes, a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood sugar levels due to insufficient insulin production, is on the rise due to various factors such as lifestyle shifts, population aging, genetic factors, improved diagnostic methods, and environmental influences. Biguanides such as metformin help manage diabetes by enhancing insulin sensitivity, reducing liver glucose production, and lowering blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes. For example, according to the Office for Health Improvement & Disparities, a UK-based government department, between March 2022 and March 2023, the percentage of individuals receiving all eight recommended care processes for type 1 and type 2 diabetes increased significantly. Additionally, the percentage of individuals achieving target HbA1c levels reached a record high of 37.9%. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of diabetes is propelling the growth of the biguanides market.
Leading companies in the biguanides market are concentrating on developing advanced solutions such as extended-release formulations to enhance patient compliance, improve therapeutic effectiveness, and minimize side effects. Extended-release biguanides slowly release their active ingredients, ensuring consistent blood levels and better glycemic control for diabetes patients, thereby enhancing treatment adherence. For instance, in August 2023, Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, an India-based biotechnology company, introduced saxagliptin and metformin hydrochloride extended-release drugs, a generic version of KOMBIGLYZE XR approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA). This combination medication, consisting of saxagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, and metformin, a biguanide, aims to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when used in conjunction with diet and exercise. The extended-release formulation enhances patient adherence and efficacy.
In August 2023, Lupin, an India-based biopharmaceutical company, acquired diabetes brands ONDERO and ONDERO MET from Boehringer Ingelheim for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition enables Lupin to expand its product portfolio and strengthen its position in the anti-diabetes segment, ensuring broader access to medication for patients. Boehringer Ingelheim, a Germany-based biopharmaceutical company, is renowned for its research, development, and production of therapies for both human and veterinary medicine.
