Drivers

Rising Prevalence of Chronic Diseases 

• The rise in cases of diseases like diabetes, obesity and hormonal deficiencies is one of the key factors giving rise to the demand for injection pens globally. As patients increasingly need to be on treatment constantly, the need for devices for self-administration that are simple to use, accurate and effective continues to increase thereby improving compliance and patient outcomes. 

Technological Advancements in Devices 

• The growth of the market is due to various innovations developed in the injection pen technology, for instance smart features, dose tracking, and better ergonomics. The innovations impress not only on the convenience and ease of use for patients but also on delivery of drugs accurately which builds trust of patients and health care providers in the effective management of chronic illness. 

Restraints 

Competition from Alternative Delivery Methods 

• The growing ease of access to alternative drug delivery means, through oral medications, infusion pumps, and the like, presents a challenge to the global injection pen market. As patients and caregivers seek the convenience of these options, injection pens may suffer from a demand/supply challenge thereby affecting the overall global injection pen market growth. 

Risk of Injection Errors 

• Although they are advantageous; injection pens, moreover, pose a risk of misuse by patients, for example, through self-injecting excessive medication or adopting the wrong mode of injecting. Such factors may result in poor patient results; hence, some of the healthcare practitioners prefer not to embrace these strategies in totality. Such issues related to safety and efficacy might also restrict the expansion and obsolescence of the particular market.
