The important drivers increasing growth in the global anti-rheumatics market are the rising geriatric population across the globe and the surging prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis disease. The rapid growth of the geriatric population is one of the major drivers of the global anti-rheumatics market. The global geriatric population has increased significantly and is vulnerable to rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis has become a major concern worldwide, as it is an autoimmune disease, which involves pain and inflammation of joints leading to limited mobility.

In 2019, disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs was the dominating category in the drug class segment, contributing 36.91% of the revenue, and the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs category is estimated to be the fastest-growing drug class segment, registering CAGR of 3.09%. The disease-modifying anti-rheumatic (DMARDs) are used to modify the progression of rheumatoid arthritis. For instance, DMARDs can slow the progression of rheumatoid arthritis, which leads to the occurrence of fewer symptoms and lesser damage to joints over time. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are medications that belong to analgesics. These medicines reduce pain and fever, along with inflammation and hence, are employed in the management of rheumatoid arthritis

The patent expirations and lack of regulatory guidelines for biosimilars are the major factors hindering the global anti-rheumatics market growth. Patent expirations lead to the entry of low-priced generics in the market, which restricts its growth. The event is most likely to transform both, the competitive landscape and the RA treatment paradigm, during the forecast period. There will be the launch of biosimilars, but due to various regulatory guidelines, the availability of those products is delayed in those regions.

The report on the global anti-rheumatics market includes the segmentation analysis of the type and drug class.

Type is segmented into:

  • Prescription-Based Drugs
  • Over-the-Counter Drugs

Drug Class into is segmented:

  • Disease-Modifying Anti-rheumatic Drugs
  • Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs
  • Corticosteroids
  • Uric Acid Drugs
  • Other Drug Class

Geographically, the global anti-rheumatics market has been segmented based on four major regions, which includes:

  • North America: the United States and Canada
  • Europe: Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Russia, Belgium, Poland, and the Rest of Europe
  • Asia Pacific: India, China, South Korea, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Australia & New Zealand, and the Rest of Asia Pacific
  • Rest of World: Latin America, the Middle East & Africa

In 2019, North America captured the largest market share of approx. 40.94%, in terms of revenue, and is also anticipated to be the fastest-growing region, owing to a surge in the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis. Moreover, an increase in the geriatric population is another major factor that fuels the growth of the anti-rheumatics market.

Some of the renowned market players of the global anti-rheumatics market are:

  • AbbVie Inc
  • Eli Lilly & company
  • Pfizer Inc
  • UCB
  • Johnson & Johnson
  • Others

Key strategies adopted by some of the anti-rheumatics companies are:

In July 2019, Abbott LatAm entered into a contract with BioGaia for the exclusive rights to sell BioGaia products under the BioGaia brand in Uruguay. Furthermore, in July 2019, Merck and Skyhawk Therapeutics entered into an agreement to develop small molecules that modulate RNA splicing. In January 2020, UCB announced that it had received an agreement from the Japanese health establishments for CIMZIA (certolizumab pegol) to treat psoriatic arthritis, plaque psoriasis, psoriatic erythroderma and pustular psoriasis for which existing treatment methods are not sufficiently effective.

Key findings of the global anti-rheumatics market are:

  • Prescription-based drugs are the major revenue generating type.
  • Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are the fastest-growing drug class segment.
  • Constant inflammation and bone loss can also lead to osteoporosis and bone fractures leading to rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
  • Overexpression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is one of the key mediators in the pathogenesis of RA.
  • Quality of life (QOL) is an important consideration for people with RA.
  • An increase in incidences of obesity is one of the major factors responsible for the prevalence of RDs in Russia.
