“Increasing pollution in emerging economies has resulted in degradation of air quality which is one of the major reasons for increasing COPD and asthma prevalence amongst children and teenagers. Furthermore, reduction in social stigma on usage of inhalers has resulted in an improved disease management regime across various countries.”
Industry Analyst, Visiongain 2020

Asthma and COPD are chronic conditions that require regular monitoring and frequent changes to medication. In addition, patient adherence to treatment and inhaler technique affects clinical outcomes. Improvements in these areas could increase demand for asthma and COPD therapies and have a positive effect on market growth. Recently, steps have been undertaken by the healthcare agencies and private companies across the world in initiating telehealth as a mode of management for asthma and COPD patients.

One of the major trials of this was undertaken by Novartis in the UK in 2012, in collaboration with multiple healthcare agencies. Novartis developed their inhaler, Breezhaler, into an electronic inhaler (eBreezhaler). The inhaler has an electronic chip inside it, which monitors the number of times the device has been used and transmits the data into a telehealth system which can be accessed by the physician. This technique allows the physician to observe the patient adherence and monitor their conditions remotely and in real time. It should reduce the frequency of hospitalization and improve adherence to treatment.

COPD is a leading cause of death in the United States which affects over 18 million Americans. More than 65 million people around the world have moderate or severe COPDs and experts predict that over the next 50 years this number will continue to rise worldwide. More than.5 million Americans were diagnosed with chronic bronchitis in 2019, and almost 75 per cent of cases involved people over 45 years of age. Throughout the United States, women develop recurrent bronchitis at almost double the rate of males. Over the last 12 months, 5.9 million people were infected with recurrent bronchitis over 2016 as compared to 3 million men who had been infected around this period.

Asia has seen strong economic development and a declining climatic condition in recent years, with a rise in outbreak proportions of allergic diseases. For several Asian countries in particular China and India, air pollutant rates are considerably higher than in developing countries. In addition, combustion of agricultural, traffic-related and domestic waste, indoor chemicals and tobacco emissions are significant sources of air contaminants, with increased pressure on respiratory allergies. Such factors are likely to flourish the market for drugs over the forecast period. Some of the major companies operating in this market are AstraZeneca, GlaxoSmithKline, Boehringer Ingelheim, Teva, Merck, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG among other prominent players.
