Furthermore, favorable government policies and coverage under Medicare and Medicaid are also proving favorable for the United States autoinjector market growth.

United States Autoinjectors Market – Overview

An autoinjector, sometimes known as an auto-injector, is a piece of medical equipment used to administer a dosage of a specific medicine. Autoinjectors are used to self-administer epinephrine to treat anaphylaxis, to ease migraine patients' urgent discomfort, and for other medical and emergency treatments. The majority of autoinjectors are disposable, spring-loaded, single-use syringes (prefilled syringes). Autoinjectors are created to be simple to use and to be administered by patients themselves or by unskilled persons. Depending on the substance loaded, the injection location may vary, however, it is commonly delivered into the buttocks or thigh.

Growth Drivers

Increasing Prevalence of Allergies in the United States

According to a report published on Medical News, the United States is witnessing a surge of multi-food allergies among children and adults. Food allergy (FA) has developed into a chronic illness in the United States, because of its rising frequency and lasting psychological and physical repercussions in the recent decades. According to a recent study, immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated FA affects roughly 10.8% of adults and 7.6% of children in the US. During an emergency, adrenaline autoinjectors are used to treat severe allergic responses (anaphylaxis). They may be administered by anybody, including those who lack medical training and are made to provide a single, set amount of adrenaline. The increasing burden of allergies may emerge as a major driving factor for the United States autoinjectors market.

Restraints

Cross Compatibility Issues with Autoinjector Devices

Autoinjectors are highly convenient to use, especially for patients in home care settings. However, there have been several reports of safety-related problems with auto-injectors and pen injectors, due to usability limitations. A recent notice issued by the FDA stated that the ‘FDA-approved glatiramer acetate injectable medicine items may not all be compatible with autoinjector devices that are optional for use with the medication. The FDA has been informed of instances of missing and incomplete doses as a result of utilizing an autoinjector that is incompatible with the patient's particular glatiramer acetate injectable medication product.’ It may limit the use of autoinjectors, affecting the market growth in the United States.

Impact of COVID-19 on the United States Autoinjectors Market

COVID-19 had a positive impact on the United States autoinjector market in the long term. As the number of COVID-19 patients spiked in the hospitals and the entire healthcare system was overburdened, the patients suffering from other ailments delayed their hospital visits to prevent virus contraction. As a result, the use of autoinjectors in homecare settings to keep medical conditions under check surged, propelling the demand for autoinjectors. With an expanding demand for various medical supplies including autoinjectors, syringes, and thermometers, the manufacturers significantly invested in expanding their production capacity. It is projected to boost the growth of the United States autoinjectors during the post-pandemic period.
