Global N Acetylcysteine Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report, By Type (Spray, Tracheal Drip, Tablet), By Application (Medicine, Nutritional Supplements, Others), Forecast Period (2022-2028)

The global N Acetylcysteine market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period (2022-2028). Acetylcysteine (NAT) is a chemical used to treat paracetamol (acetaminophen) overdoses as well as release thick mucus in individuals with chronic respiratory disorders like pneumonia and bronchitis. It can be used to treat lactobezoar in babies, and inject, ingest, or inhale as a mist. It’s widely used as a dietary supplement. Nausea and vomiting are common side effects when taking medications by mouth. After taking the drug, some people experience skin redness and irritation. Non-immune anaphylaxis is also a possibility. It is considered safe during pregnancy. It raises glutathione levels, an antioxidant that neutralizes the harmful breakdown products of paracetamol, to counteract paracetamol overdose. It functions as a mucolytic when inhaled, lowering mucus thickness.

Furthermore, N-acetylcysteine has been licensed by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat liver adverse effects caused by an overdose of the anti-inflammatory drug Tylenol (acetaminophen). N-acetylcysteine is also used to help persons with cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) release the heavy mucus in their lungs. Thus, rising in prevalence of COPD is contributing to the growth of the global N Acetylcysteine market.  According to the WHO, more than 90% of COPD mortalities occur in low- and middle-income countries. Furthermore, the WHO estimated that more than 4.5 million people globally will die each year from COPD and related disease by 2030. According to the survey conducted by Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention in 2019, 88.5% of all the deaths were caused by chronic diseases including cardiovascular, cancer, and chronic respiratory disease accounting for 80.7%.

The key companies operating in the industry are highly inclined towards the adoption of different growth strategies including capacity expansion, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, new product launch, and product innovation to remain competitive in the marketplace. For instance, Breath Therapeutics, a company that develops treatments for the uncommon respiratory condition Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome, was acquired by Zambon Company S.P.A in July 2019.
