How Will Rising Demand for Osteoporosis Drugs Market?

Across the globe, the incidence of osteoporosis is surging rapidly, primarily because of the growing adoption of unhealthy and sedentary lifestyles and dietary habits of people, owing to the rising urbanization rate. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), over 50% of the population across the world currently reside in urban areas and this share will rise to 70% by 2050. Moreover, with increasing work hours and long working schedules, people are not finding the time to exercise and take care of their physical health. 


All these factors are responsible for the growing prevalence of osteoporosis, which is, in turn, propelling the need for osteoporosis drugs across the world. Besides this, the surging investments being made in the development and discovery of drugs that can treat osteoporosis, on account of the growing healthcare expenditure in several countries, are also fueling the expansion of the osteoporosis drugs market. 
Apart from the above-mentioned factors, the surging population of geriatric people is also fueling the demand for these drugs. According to the World Population Aging 2020 report published by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), the population of people aged 65 years or above will rise from 727 million in 2020 to more than 1.5 billion by 2050. As geriatric people are highly vulnerable to bone fractures and suffer from low bone density, their soaring population is augmenting the worldwide sales of osteoporosis drugs. 
Selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), bisphosphonates, rank ligand inhibitor, calcitonin, and parathyroid hormone therapy are the main osteoporosis drug classes. Out of these, the usage of the bisphosphonates class drugs was found to be the highest in the world in 2015. On the other hand, in the coming years, the popularity of rank ligand class drugs is predicted to rise at the fastest pace. Geographically, the demand for osteoporosis drugs was found to be the highest in North America in 2015.
Therefore, the demand for osteoporosis drugs is certain to shoot up in the coming years, primarily because of the growing prevalence of osteoporosis and the mushrooming population of geriatric people across the world.
