    Report Overview

    Global Human Insulin Market size is expected to be worth around USD 46.7 Billion by 2033 from USD 29.2 Billion in 2023, growing at a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period from 2024 to 2033.

    Insulin is the peptide hormone produced by beta cells in the pancreas. Insulin helps to absorb glucose from blood and regulation throughout the body. It is used especially in patients with damaged blood tissue and other health complications like diabetic retinopathy and diabetic nephropathy. When the body cannot control glucose and other problems, they require insulin daily.

    Human insulin refers to synthetic insulin produced in a laboratory to closely resemble that found naturally within humans. It’s created by cultivating insulin proteins within Escherichia coli bacteria in a laboratory setting, with two variations available – fast-acting (regular) and medium-acting (NPH). Human insulin was designed for cost-effective large-scale production; administration can take place either orally or via delivery devices such as syringes, pumps or injection pens, designed specifically to ensure timely and consistent insulin administration.

    The increase in the number of diabetes patients affecting the demand for analog diabetic insulins is expected to drive the market over the forecast periodHuman Insulin Market Size

    Drivers

    Launch of Novel Insulin Products to Stimulate the Market Growth

    The geriatric population of diabetes patients has been rising significantly in the recent pandemic and is estimated to grow significantly in the coming years. A large number of the population suffers from type 1 diabetes. Insulin is essential for type 1 diabetes patients due to the daily requirement for glycemic control.

    The increase in requests for human insulin universally helps drive the market growth during the forecast period. The insulin market is witnessing a significant number of new products across the globe. The companies are concentrating on developing novel insulin drugs to gain higher market shares in the human insulin market.

    Restraints

    Lack of Health Funding and Diagnosis Restrict the Growth of the Market.

    During the COVID-19 Pandemic, insulin accounted for significant demand growth owing to new product adoption and advanced technologies. However, the lack of funding in emerging and developing regions restricted the market growth. Also, expensive diagnostics treatment hampers the growth market. Due to the presence of low-income people, they cannot afford the treatment and demand low-cost treatment.

    The refund encourages the people to give the treatment and diagnosis, but lack of the refund and diagnosed cases of diabetes limits the demand for human insulin worldwide and declines the market growth during the forecast period.

    Opportunity

    Increasing investments and Healthcare Facilities

    The human insulin industry is also boosted due to growing healthcare industries in several emerging economies such as Brazil, India, South Africa, and China. The rapidly increasing geriatric population, rising per capita incomes, high patient volumes, and spiking awareness among individuals drive the need to enhance these nations’ healthcare industries.

    Therefore, the governments in these economies are increasing their investments to improve healthcare facilities & infrastructure. Owing to the high number of applications of human insulin products in healthcare industries, the rising investment in this industry is expected to offer growth opportunities in the market.

    Trends

    Improvement in Research and Healthcare Facilities Drive the Market Growth

    The increase in the frequency of diabetes due to choosing a poor lifestyle, unhealthy diets, and high-stress levels are the major factors that help to increase the demand for human insulin across the globe. However, the increasing geriatric population, which is more susceptible to such products, helps provide market growth.

    The key players are introducing pen devices and safety pen needles to manage human insulin in the body. It helps to reduce the risk of infection and injuries and minimize discomfort. Also, growing public awareness about the benefits of using insulin and individuals’ health consciousness is driving the market.

    Regional Analysis

    North America Dominate the Largest Shares in the Human Insulin Market

    North America dominates the market share by 40.7% and held USD 11.8 billion market revenue in the human insulin market. The presence of robust major insulin manufacturers, the strong competition between companies, and the increasing frequency of diabetes 1 and diabetes 2 insulin are the major factors to drive the insulin market’s growth in North America. Europe is the second largest region in the human insulin market due to the growth of this region and the increasing prevalence of key players in this region. Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. It is applicable due to the presence of high-risk diabetes patients in this region.
