U.S Intravenous Solutions Market – Drivers
- Increasing launches and regulatory approvals for intravenous solution injection: Market players are involved in launching new intravenous injection solutions, which is expected to boost the growth of the U.S. intravenous solutions market over the forecast period. For instance, in September 2021, Baxter International Inc., a sterile medication production company, announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval and commercial launch of premix Norepinephrine Bitartrate in 5% Dextrose Injection (norepinephrine). Norepinephrine is indicated to raise blood pressure in adult patients with severe, acute hypotension (low blood pressure). Baxter’s formulation of norepinephrine is the first and only manufacturer-prepared ready-to-use formulation and is available in 4 mg/250 mL (16 mcg/mL) and 8 mg/250 mL (32 mcg/mL) strengths.
- Increasing prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases: The increasing prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases is expected to increase the demand for intravenous solutions, thereby driving the U.S intravenous solutions market’s growth. For instance, in September 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published data according to which 6 in 10 adults in the U.S. have chronc disease, and chronic disease is one of the leading drivers of annual health care costs, which is US$4.1 trillion in 2020. Hence, this is expected to fuel the U.S. intravenous solution market growth over the forecast period.

U.S Intravenous Solutions Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
- Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe, and the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.
- COVID-19 affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting the production and demand of drugs, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries, such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., Egypt, and others, faced problems with the transportation of things from one place to another.
- However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the U.S. intravenous solutions market, owing to the fast spread of coronavirus illness (COVID-19), which will allow patients in intensive care units (ICU) to receive vital nutrients. In addition to this, a significant growth-inducing element is the rise in diabetes, cancer, gastrointestinal problems, and neurological illnesses. Additionally, IV solution therapy's superior efficacy and quicker response time are fostering market expansion. It is employed to treat chronic dehydration, a disease that can lead to weariness, memory loss, irritability, and other health issues. For instance, on May 8, 2023, approximately 60% of the U.S. population grappled with at least one chronic ailment, such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, or diabetes. These chronic conditions not only stand as the primary culprits behind both fatalities and health-related limitations in the United States but also play a significant role in escalating healthcare expenses.
