Digital Dose Inhaler Market: COVID-19 Impact

Medical supplies like masks, gloves, and safety glasses experienced phenomenal growth in demand due to COVID-19. The demand for medical supplies continued to gain traction among the general public and healthcare professionals due to the increase in COVID-19 cases worldwide. To guarantee a sufficient and ongoing supply of personal protective equipment in the market, manufacturers of these products explored an opportunity to capitalize on the rising demand for medical supplies. The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has benefited the medical device sector. It has had a lasting impact on the digital dose inhaler market as it  caused industries to close their doors temporarily, and governments declared states of lockdown in various regions, decreasing demand for digital dose inhaler devices.

Mounting Prevalence of Asthma, and COPD Promotes Product Penetration to Foster Digital Dose Inhaler Market Expansion

Developments in digital inhaler health platforms enrich businesses' value chains in the digital dosage inhaler market. Their contribution to improving inhaled therapy adherence among COPD, and asthma patients has created a value-grab opportunity for market competitors. The use of add-ons or embedded sensors allows patients and clinicians to collect data on inhaler actuation and occasionally on techniques, enabling adherence monitoring. The digital dose inhaler market will grow due to these product characteristics continuing to draw consumers. Due to digital technologies' critical role in e-health, new approaches to managing asthma patients have emerged. The window of opportunity will thus grow as e-health advances. The prospects for digital dosage inhaler market have improved over the past several years thanks to several products receiving approvals, particularly from the US FDA.

New Product Introductions Significantly Support Digital Dose Inhaler Market Growth

Major suppliers in the digital dose inhaler market have been focusing on scaling up their research and development efforts, and creating new product solutions due to the varying needs dependent on consumption. Top industry players have discovered how improved precision can affect several applications. For instance, in 2019 Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. reported that the US FDA had authorized the ProAir Digihaler inhalation powder, the first and sole digital inhaler with built-in sensors that helps connect to a mobile partner application and provides inhaler use information to individuals with asthma, and COPD. The ProAir Digihaler is used for the treatment or prevention of bronchospasm in patients with reversible obstructive airway disease who are four years of age or older, as well as for the prevention of exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB) in patients who are four years of age or older.

Dearth of Skilled Individuals, and High Associated Costs Continue to Limit Digital Dose Inhaler Market Expansion

The factors anticipated to impede the growth of the digital dose inhaler market are the high cost of inhalers and worries about the accuracy of digital data. The market for digital dosage inhalers is expected to face challenges from a lack of awareness of modern digital technologies and consumers choosing traditional over digital due to the former's lower price. Despite the growing benefits of digital dose inhalers, the availability of manual inhalers as a replacement product may limit market expansion. Another significant factor impeding the market expansion of smart inhalers during the forecast period is the lack of awareness of using digital inhalers among the populace of developing economies.

Branded Medication Spearhead Digital Dose Inhaler Market with Soaring Demand in Development of Novel Respiratory Medications

Based on type, the digital dose inhaler market is segmented into branded and generic medications. The branded medication held the largest market share in 2021 and is anticipated to increase significantly over the next several years due to the sharp increase in healthcare spending levels and the surge in demand for developing novel respiratory medications. The consistent technological advancements in producing inhalation medicines and the rising number of branded drug inhalation devices would be responsible for the predicted penetration rate of these branded drug inhalation devices throughout the forecast period. Soon, the segment for generic medications is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate. The market for digital dose inhalers is anticipated to grow significantly over the forecast period due to many factors, including the growing awareness of the advantages of generic drugs and the high demand for affordable medications.

Dry Powder Inhalers Lead Digital Dose Inhaler Market in the Wake of High Prevalence of Chronic Respiratory Conditions

Based on the product, the digital dose inhaler market is segmented into metered dose inhalers and dry powder inhalers. The dry powder inhaler category dominated the market over the forecast period. Dry powder inhalers dispense medicine into the lungs as a dry powder. The main drivers of the dry powder inhaler market's expansion are the prevalence of long-term respiratory conditions like COPD, and asthma, as well as the rising demand for technologically advanced features in respiratory devices. The use of DPIs, which have fewer irritant effects while offering the same therapeutic efficacy as MDIs, has increased due to issues with drug irritation brought on by the presence of propellant components, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), in MDIs. The DPIs are therefore known as "green inhalers." Additionally, it is anticipated that the rising number of product launches will aid the study segment's expansion over the forecast period.

With Intensive R&D, North America Retains Dominance in Digital Dose Inhaler Market

Over the forecast period, it is anticipated that the North America’s digital dose inhaler market will account for the largest revenue share. This is attributable to the intensive research and development efforts along with the high level of awareness regarding the current crop of high-tech respiratory devices. In addition, a rise in the prevalence of respiratory diseases among both children and the elderly will support market expansion. Adult women in the U.S. are more likely than adult men to have asthma. 7.8% of Americans had common asthma in 2020, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published in May 2022. According to the report, 6.1% of men and 9.5% of women in 2020 had asthma, respectively. Additionally, the rising number of product launches is anticipated to fuel market expansion in this area. For instance, Teva Pharmaceuticals introduced the AirDuo Digihare and ArmonAir Digihaler inhalation powder, two digital maintenance inhalers for asthma patients, in September 2020. As a result, it is anticipated that the factors mentioned earlier will fuel the expansion of digital dose inhaler in this region over the forecast period.
