Asthma Treatment Market Size, Trends, Growth, Report 2032

The global asthma treatment market is anticipated to be worth USD 26.7 billion in 2022 and is expected to rise to USD 35.1 billion by 2032, poised to grow at a strong CAGR of 2.77 percent during the forecast period 2023 To 2032.

Asthma is managed with rescue inhalers to treat symptoms and controller inhalers that prevent symptoms. Some asthma cases demand longer-acting inhalers that keep the airways open and inhalant steroids. In asthma, the airways get narrowed and swelled and may produce extra mucus. Asthma makes breathing difficult and triggers coughing. It can interfere with daily activities and may result in life-threatening asthma attacks. It can't be cured, but its symptoms can be controlled. The signs and symptoms of asthma are breath shortness, chest tightness or pain, wheezing when exhaling, trouble sleeping due to shortness of breath, wheezing, etc. Some asthma attacks can be life-threatening.

Asthma treatment involves a diagnosis in which the doctor will perform a physical exam to rule out other possible conditions, like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The keys to stopping asthma attacks are prevention and long-term control. Its treatment involves learning to recognize your triggers, avoiding them, and tracking breathing to ensure asthma medications control symptoms. Some medications are used to control, prevent, and treat asthma, such as fluticasone propionate, budesonide, ciclesonide, beclomethasone (Qvar Redihaler), mometasone, and fluticasone furoate.

Some oral medications, such as montelukast, zafirlukast, and zileuton, help relieve asthma symptoms. Other medications are fluticasone-salmeterol, fluticasone furoate-vilanterol, formoterol-mometasone, Theophylline, albuterol, levalbuterol, bronchodilators, ipratropium, prednisone, methylprednisolone, etc. In today's medical scenario, respiratory health holds the utmost importance. Asthma is one of the main causes of death and disability across the globe.

A report was published in 2017 by the World Health Organization (WHO) on "The Global Impact of Respiratory Disease," which stated that an estimated 334 million individuals have asthma.
