ASTHMA THERAPEUTICS MARKET ANALYSIS

Global Asthma Therapeutics Market Insights

Asthma is a type of chronic respiratory disease, which is characterized by attacks of breathlessness and wheezing. Asthma can occur at any stage, though it is the most common disease in children. Asthma attacks are linked to respiratory infections and environmental factors such as allergens, tobacco, smoke, and indoor and outdoor pollution. Indoor pollution factors include mold, chemicals, strong odors, and house dust whereas outdoor pollution factors include air pollution, allergens, tobacco, and smoking. Such factors are responsible for development and exacerbation of asthma.

The global asthma therapeutics market was valued at US$ 17,582.2 million in 2018, and is expected to witness a CAGR of 1.9% during the forecast period (2018 – 2026). The market is also expected to Surpass US$ 20.4 Billion by 2026.
