ANTI OBESITY DRUG MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2025-2032)

Obesity is commonly defined as having too much body mass. A body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher is the usual benchmark for obesity in adults. Anti-obesity drugs are medications, which are used to reduce body weight by lowering cholesterol levels in the body. These drugs affect the human body's basic functions by modifying appetite or eating calories. Anti-obesity drugs are commonly used for the treatment of obesity. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) have approved several anti-obesity drugs to treat obesity.

Market Dynamics

Increasing obese population and related chronic diseases, increase in concern of being overweight or obese, increase in demand for anti-obesity drugs, increase in research and development, and the outbreak of COVID-19 are major factors expected to drive the growth of the global anti-obesity drug market during the forecast period. For instance, in June 2021, the U.S. FDA approved Semaglutide 2.4 mg for chronic weight management in adults with obesity and/or overweight with at least one weight-related condition (such as high blood pressure or cholesterol, or T2D) for use in addition to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Moreover, in January 2021, Novartis, a global healthcare company, announced the results of its Phase II trial of an investigational product drug called Bimagrumab. The drug has shown potential for the indication of obesity. The drug is currently being studied in the Novartis pipeline.
