The global semaglutide market size is expected to reach USD 81.08 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Semaglutide Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report By Product (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Others), By Application, By Route of Administration, By Distribution Channel, By Region - Market Forecast, 2025-2034" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The semaglutide market includes the sales of drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management. The medicine works by mimicking a hormone in the body that regulates blood sugar levels and appetite. It is available in different forms, including injections and oral tablets. It is sold under various brand names, with each approved for specific conditions. This market has grown significantly due to the increasing incidence of metabolic diseases and the effectiveness of the drug.
The market has seen rapid growth due to several key factors. The rising global number of people affected by type 2 diabetes and obesity is creating a large patient population in need of effective treatments. The drug's ability to manage blood sugar and promote significant weight loss has made it a popular choice, also for obesity treatment. In addition, the introduction of an oral version of the drug has made it more convenient and appealing for patients who prefer not to use injections. This has helped to expand the market by making the treatment accessible to a wider group of people.
By product, the ozempic segment held the largest share in 2024. Its leading position is attributed to its long history, proven effectiveness in treating type 2 diabetes, and high public awareness.
By application, the type 2 diabetes mellitus segment held the largest share in 2024. This is because the drug was first approved for this condition, giving it a strong head start and a well-established base of patients.
By route of administration, the parenteral segment, which includes injections, held the largest share in 2024. This is because the first products on the market were injections, and they have built a strong foundation of patient trust and use.
By distribution channel, the retail pharmacies segment held the largest share in 2024. The widespread presence and convenience of these pharmacies make them the most common and accessible way for patients to get their prescriptions.
By region, North America is the leading region in the market. The region's high prevalence of diabetes and obesity, along with a developed healthcare system and strong insurance coverage, contributes to its top position. The Asia Pacific market is growing at the fastest pace, fueled by a rapidly increasing number of people affected by diabetes and obesity, especially in major countries.
Key player in the semaglutide market is Novo Nordisk.
