Interesting and surprising facts

Excipients ensure that active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can work effectively at their target sites. Excipients make up 80% to 90% of a drug’s formulation, often outweighing the API itself. While excipients are inactive themselves, they are essential for delivering the API. They help stabilize the API, improve its solubility and absorption, and control how quickly it is released in the body.

Factors contributing to the growth of the market include:

Increasing pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical consumption. Demand for medicines and biologically based treatments is growing, driven by improved access to healthcare, and advances in drug development. People in search of better treatment options are using newer biopharmaceuticals, such as vaccines and gene therapies, as well as traditional pharmaceutics more frequently. This trend highlights the importance of innovations in healthcare.
Growing demand for functional and novel excipients. There is an increasing need for new and improved inactive ingredients used in drug formulations. These excipients are not just fillers; they help enhance the effectiveness of medications by improving stability, solubility and delivery. Pharmaceutical companies are turning to excipients in order to create more effective drugs.
Instant sourcing of excipients. With advances in technology and supply chain systems being transformed by digital procurement, pharmaceutical companies can now find and order excipients more efficiently. This faster access helps streamline the drug development process, ensuring that manufacturers have the proper materials on hand when they need them, ultimately speeding up the creation of new medications.
