COVID-19 Impact on Topical Drug Delivery Market
During the COVID-19 pandemic surge, self-medication was a usual pattern for consuming medicines during COVID-19. Due to the pandemic, many treatment facilities and single doctor clinics were closed, depriving common people of timely medical assistance. The pandemic has encouraged self-medication. Topical corticosteroids were the most used therapeutic strategies for self-medication. The most used topical drugs were anti-acne preparations, corticosteroids, combinations (corticosteroids, antibiotics, and antifungals), moisturizers, and barrier creams. Self-medication has increased the demand for over-the-counter and topical drugs, positively impacting the topical drug delivery market.
During COVID-19, one of the main symptoms was running nose, cold, and cough. Nasal sprays used during COVID-19 were effective in curing nasal congestion. For example, Amcyte Pharma launched its Nasitrol nasal spray (topical solution) for sinus irrigation. The nasal cavity and the rhino pharynx were the key sites of the initial replication of SARS-CoV-2. The spray is formulated to reduce the viral load in upper respiratory airways, preventing viruses from proliferating and spreading into the lungs. This increase in nasal sprays that can suppress the viral load during COVID-19 has increased the demand for topical sprays and foams used to relieve the nasal congestion caused by the virus.

Major Growth Boosting Factors:
Growth in this market is majorly driven by the high incidence fo burn injuries, increasing number of smokers around the world, growing prevalence of diabetes, and advancements in transdermal drug delivery systems.
Expected Revenue Gains:
The global topical drug delivery market is projected to reach USD 317.8 billion by 2027 from USD 207.4 billion in 2022, at a CAGR of 8.9%.
Restraint: Continuous irritation on skin and allergies caused by topical drugs
Many topical formulations are available over the counter and include antibacterial & antifungal preparations, anti-inflammatory & pain-relief preparations, and cleansing & moisturizing agents. Topical corticosteroids are used in many inflammatory rashes. However, in some cases, topical corticosteroid sensitivity produces allergic reactions. Usually, this is seen as a failure to cure dermatitis or to worsen existing dermatitis treated with corticosteroids. Very rarely, corticosteroid allergy may appear as an eczematous rash in a completely different area of the body from the original dermatitis.
Challenge: Topical formulation for drugs with limited plasma concentration
Topical drug delivery refers to the application of medication to the surface of the skin or within the layers of skin or mucous membrane. Skin acts as a barrier and prevents the penetration of many APIs, even though it is an ideal site to achieve both local and systemic effects via the delivery of drug substances. However, drugs that have a larger particle size are not easily absorbed through the skin. To facilitate skin absorption, the molecular weight of a compound should be under 500 Dalton when developing drug substances for use in topical dermatological therapies. These high molecular weight drugs are poorly lipid-soluble and cannot achieve the desired therapeutic effect and action. Percutaneous absorption decreases with high molecular weight. This decreased therapeutic effect of topical medicines limits the adoption of topical drug delivery.
Opportunity: Rising demand for self-administration and home care
Self-administration of drugs within home care settings is expected to provide significant growth opportunities for players operating in the topical drug delivery market. This is mainly due to the rising geriatric population and closing regular OPDs for a few months during COVID-19. Elderly individuals form a large consumer base for topical drugs in-home care. This factor also increases the need for inhalation, topical, and transdermal drug products designed to cater to the needs of caregivers and patients.
Transdermal drug delivery enhances the ease of administration of drugs as it uses a transdermal patch that can be easily self-administered. It provides suitable and painless self-administration for patients. This approach helps reduce healthcare costs by reducing the duration of hospital stays. Also, in the case of transdermal patches, caregivers can easily determine if a patch is placed securely. This acts as one of the main opportunities to increase the demand for transdermal patches, boosting the growth of topical drug deliveries.
North America accounted for the largest share of the topical drug delivery market in 2021
In 2021, North America accounted for the largest share the topical drug delivery market, followed by Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. The large share of North America can be attributed to the rising prevalence of target health conditions, the increasing preference for pain-free drug delivery solutions, the growing prevalence of skin diseases, an increasing number of smokers around the world, rising advancements in transdermal patches, and the high demand for drugs that can be self-administered.
