Government funding for R&D activities and distribution is playing a role in boosting the market growth by making anti-hypertensive drugs more affordable, improving access, and increasing competition. For instance, in August 2023 , Eazymed Technologies Pvt Ltd. raised USD 500,000 from the Tamil Nadu Emerging Sector Seed Fund in India. The company will utilize the fund on new ventures in the supply chain, such as working directly with pharmaceutical companies to expand their presence in tier 2-3 cities. Such initiatives are boosting the anti-hypertensive drugs market growth.
Moreover, rising approvals of new anti-hypertensive drugs encourage pharmaceutical companies to invest in research & development of novel and effective treatment options, which is expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the key players.

Treprostinil works by dilating the pulmonary arteries, which reduces blood pressure in the lungs and improves exercise capacity.
