Global Infusion Pharmacy Management Market Definition

Infusion therapy involves the administration of drugs or medicine through a sterile catheter or needle.

This therapy is mainly suggested to only those patients who do not respond to the oral medication and whose health has not improved yet. In the infusion pharmacy, with the help of the needle or the catheter pain management antibiotics, antiviral, antifungal, and nutritional drugs are infused into the patient’s body. Infusion Pharmacy most commonly includes an infusion of antibiotics, antifungal, antiviral, pain management, and nutritional drugs through a needle or catheter.

Several types of diseases such as cancer, gastrointestinal disorders, diabetes, and pain-related diseases are treated with the help of the infusion medication system. This treatment method has traditionally been practiced only in hospitals, but now infusion therapy can be served in outpatient infusion therapy centers, or even in the home. Home infusion pharmacy management is more costly as compared to hospital infusion pharmacy management because it requires more skilled nurses. These nurses have been licensed and authorized by the state board of pharmacies, meeting the strict standards and regulations set by the board and by the government. Infusion pharmacy management is also incorporated with the government as well as private insurance plans.

Global Infusion Pharmacy Management Market Overview

The increase in the rate of prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, gastrointestinal disorders, diabetes, pain-related diseases, and others is the major factor driving the growth of the global Infusion Pharmacy Management Market. The use of oral medication is not as appropriate as the infusion medication, which is extra efficient, which in turn is expected to propel the market growth. The various initiatives taken by pharmaceutical companies to develop the healthcare infrastructure and make technological advancements will foster the Infusion Pharmacy Management Market to grow significantly. According to the WHO, 18.1 million new cases of cancer were reported globally in 2018.

Diabetes is another major disease category that requires infusion systems for precise and effective drug delivery. The disease is projected to be the seventh leading cause of death by 2030 by WHO. Due to the availability of various cancer treatments, the number of cancer survivors has increased considerably. The total number of people, who are alive within five years of cancer diagnosis, is about 43.8 million across the globe, according to the WHO. Thus, the increasing popularity of home-based therapy for cancer owing to the associated benefits such as cost-effectiveness is expected to offer favorable opportunities for the market in the coming years.

However, certain factors are limiting the growth of the global Infusion Pharmacy Management Market. The lack of availability of skilled professional nurses for home infusion pharmacy management is the major factor restraining this market growth. Moreover, the high cost involved in the infusion pharmacy, and the risk involved in patient safety results in a lower adoption rate of the infusion pharmacy, which in turn is expected to hamper the market growth in the coming years.
