When type is taken into consideration, the transdermal drug delivery systems market is divided into passive and active systems. The passive division held the larger share of the market in 2016. This type is preferred by patients as it is painless and also convenient to use. The division is further bifurcated into matrix and reservoir systems, wherein matrix systems held the larger share of the market in 2016 and are expected to dominate the market during the forecast period as well.
Another factor driving the growth of the transdermal drug delivery systems market is the technological advancements in the field. In order to administer small as well as large-molecule drugs in the bloodstream, second and third-generation delivery systems have been introduced in the market. While first-generation systems release drugs across the skin without the use of external force, second-generation systems use driving forces for transportation of small-molecule drugs. Third-generation systems target the penetration of the stratum corneum, while protecting the deeper tissues, for transferring small-molecule and macromolecule drugs.
Hence, technological advancements in transdermal drug delivery systems, rising prevalence of chronic diseases, and increasing investments in the healthcare sector in developing nations are driving the growth of the market.
