Market Overview
The Global Reactive Airway Disease Market is expected to reach at a High CAGR during the forecast period 2024-2031.
Reactive airway disease occurs when the bronchial tubes that bring air into the lungs overreact to an irritant, swell, and cause breathing problems. Reactive airway disease is often diagnosed in young children who are showing signs of asthma.
Reactive airway disease is an asthma-like episode that develops in the absence of an allergen within 24 hours of exposure to an aerosol, gas, fumes, or vapor. Individuals who are typically labeled as having reactive airway disease generally have a history of wheezing, coughing, dyspnea, and production of sputum that can be caused by asthma.

Market Dynamics
Increasing prevalence of respiratory illness
The increasing prevalence of respiratory illness acts as a significant driver for market growth. The two most common chronic respiratory diseases are asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). These both affect the airways in the lungs which is characterized by recurrent attacks of breathlessness and wheezing due to airway narrowing.
For instance, according to the World Health Organization Report 2023, asthma affected an estimated 262 million people and caused 455,000 deaths. Also, chronic respiratory diseases were the third-leading cause of death, responsible for 4.0 million deaths with a prevalence of 454.6 million cases globally.
Additionally, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, approximately 10.8% of adult females and 6.5% of adult males suffer from asthma. It is the most common chronic illness among kids. Approximately 4.5 million children under the age of 18 suffer from asthma.
Furthermore, significant growth drivers such as the rising clinical trials for reactive airway disease drugs, and the new product launches are expected to drive the market in the forecast period.
Side effects associated with treatment medications
The treatment medications like beclomethasone can cause congestion, body aches, congestion, difficulty in breathing, and hoarseness. Some side effects can also occur that usually do not need medical attention. Cramps, tightness of the chest, heavy bleeding, and pain or tenderness around the eyes and cheekbones are the less common side effects.
Market Segment Analysis
The global reactive airway disease market is segmented based on condition, treatment, distribution channel, and region.
The bronchodilators segment accounted for approximately 43.9% of the market share
The bronchodilators segment is expected to hold the largest market share over the period forecast due to the increasing number of product launches. Bronchodilators (inhalers) help in relaxing the airways. Doctors commonly prescribe bronchodilators to treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
For instance, in July 2023, Teva UK launched a new GoResp Digihaler system in the United Kingdom. GoResp Digihaler is the first integrated inhaler with built-in sensors that detect and record objective data on the patient’s use and ability to use their inhaler including inspiratory flow classification.
Additionally, in July 2023, Hormosan Pharma GmbH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Lupin company in Germany, launched Luforbec, a pressurized metered dose inhaler in the European nation. Luforbec is indicated for adult asthma and COPD treatment, where the use of an inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting beta2-agonist is suitable. Hence, due to the above factors, the segment is expected to hold the largest market share.
Market Geographical Share
North America is expected to hold a significant position in the global reactive airway disease market share
North America has maintained a significant market proportion due to factors such as the rising prevalence of bronchiectasis, product approvals, and increasing healthcare expenditure, this trend is anticipated to continue throughout the forecast period.
For instance, an estimated 350,000 to 500,000 adults have bronchiectasis in the United States. The prevalence of bronchiectasis increases with age with an 8 to 10 fold difference in prevalence after the age of 60 years.
Additionally, in January 2023, Airsupra was approved in the United States for the treatment of bronchoconstriction to reduce the risk of exacerbations in people with asthma aged 18 years and older. Airsupra is a first-in-class, pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI), fixed-dose combination rescue medication containing albuterol, a short-acting beta2-agonist (SABA), and budesonide.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global reactive airway disease market. The onset of the pandemic in early 2020 led to widespread lockdowns and restrictions, impacting regular diagnoses, treatment, drug launches, and consultations worldwide. With the outbreak of the pandemic, many pharmaceutical or medical device manufacturing units faced labor shortages and were unable to travel to work due to lockdown restrictions. Therefore, owing to the above factors, the reactive airway disease market is expected to be moderately affected over the forecast period.
Market Companies
The major global players in the market include GlaxoSmithKline Plc., Cipla Ltd, AstraZeneca Plc, Niksan Pharmaceutical, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Merck KGaA, Lupin Ltd., Hikma Pharmaceuticals Plc. and Merit Pharmaceutical among others.
Key Developments
- In June 2023, Phil Inc. in partnership with Teva Pharmaceuticals launched a new program to improve access to the Digihaler family of inhalers. The goal of the program is to help enable patients to receive and refill their Digihaler medication quickly, easily, and affordably.
- In November 2023, Aurobindo Pharma received approval for Budesonide Inhalation Suspension from the U.S. FDA to market a generic medication to treat asthma in children.
