Chronic cough is characterized by persistent coughing lasting eight weeks or more, often indicative of an underlying condition such as asthma, allergies, or respiratory infections.
The primary drug classes for chronic cough include antihistamines, corticosteroids, decongestants, combination drugs, antibiotics, acid blockers, and others. Antihistamines are medications designed to address allergies by counteracting the physiological effects of histamines. These drugs can be administered through various routes, including oral, inhalational, injectable, and others, catering to settings such as hospitals, homecare, specialty centers, and more. Distribution channels for chronic cough medications encompass hospital pharmacies, online pharmacies, and retail pharmacies.

The chronic cough market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.5 billion in 2023 to $8.16 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to various factors, including the prevalence of underlying respiratory conditions, environmental factors such as air pollution, smoking and tobacco use, respiratory infections, as well as allergies and environmental sensitivities. These factors collectively contribute to the occurrence and persistence of chronic cough.
The chronic cough market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.48 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the emergence of therapies targeting specific pathways, a deepening understanding of reflux-related cough, global initiatives in smoking cessation, and the implementation of environmental and occupational health policies. Key trends in the forecast period include advancements in diagnostic technologies, the adoption of patient-centric approaches, innovative treatments for neurogenic cough, the integration of telehealth for chronic cough management, and ongoing research on central sensitization. These trends collectively contribute to the evolving landscape of chronic cough management and care.
The surge in the prevalence of cough incidents is anticipated to drive the expansion of the chronic cough market in the foreseeable future. Coughing is a natural reflex that expels irritants or foreign substances from the airways, and when it persists for a duration exceeding eight weeks, it is termed as chronic. The increase in overall cough instances directly correlates with the rise in chronic cough cases. For example, as per March 2022 data from Florida Health, the US reported a total of 80 cases in 2021, marking an incidence of 41.0 and 1.4 per 100,000 individuals for cough and pertussis cases, respectively. Similarly, findings from the Statens Serum Institut in Denmark revealed a 41% increase in pertussis cases from November 2022 to April 2023 compared to the previous year. This escalating prevalence of cough-related conditions, notably pertussis, is a driving force behind the chronic cough market's growth.
The growing prevalence of smoking and tobacco usage is expected to contribute to the expansion of the chronic cough market. Smoking, a habit involving the inhalation or absorption of tobacco smoke, leads to chronic bronchitis, increased mucus production, reduced lung function, and a compromised immune system, among other health issues. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's November 2023 report, an estimated 28.3 million adults in the US were cigarette smokers in 2021, accounting for 11.5% of the adult population. The escalating numbers in smoking prevalence and tobacco use significantly contribute to persistent coughing issues, amplifying the demand for chronic cough remedies and treatments in the market.
Major companies in the chronic cough market are directing their efforts towards innovating products such as cough syrup to solidify their market position. Cough syrups serve to alleviate upper respiratory allergies and common colds, typically containing non-opioid cough suppressants that target the brain's specific cough center to reduce coughing. An illustration of this innovation is seen in Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited's September 2021 launch of Chericof 12, a novel cough remedy formulation. This prescription cough syrup utilizes Polistirex technology, ensuring a sustained 12-hour relief. This technology facilitates prolonged medication release, enhancing patient adherence by preventing the need for frequent dosage adjustments. By combining chlorpheniramine maleate and dextromethorphan hydrobromide within the Polistirex technology, the formulation gradually releases medication, effectively alleviating coughs over an extended duration.
Leading enterprises in the chronic cough sector are emphasizing technologically advanced products such as cough detectors to drive market growth. Cough detection entails the identification and categorization of cough sounds using cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. For instance, in May 2023, Hyfe Inc., a US-based company specializing in acoustic epidemiology with a focus on analyzing health sounds, particularly coughs, introduced a digital therapeutic. This innovative digital therapeutic aims to improve patients' lives by providing comprehensive care for chronic cough sufferers. Leveraging Hyfe's expertise in cough monitoring and its extensive database of over 700 million sounds, this digital therapy offers an end-to-end solution for managing coughs. By integrating speech therapy for cough treatment and suppression alongside breathing exercises accessible via mobile devices, this digital therapeutic addresses the needs of chronic cough patients.
In September 2022, the US-based biopharmaceutical company Pfizer Inc. successfully acquired the ASX-listed digital health startup ResApp Health for $115 million. This strategic acquisition was undertaken by Pfizer to strengthen its product portfolio and extend its footprint in key healthcare technology domains. ResApp is a smartphone application known for analyzing coughing patterns, accurately identifying respiratory conditions such as asthma, pneumonia, bronchiolitis, croup, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). ResApp Health, headquartered in Australia, is a healthcare solutions company that specializes in the management of chronic cough. This acquisition reflects Pfizer's commitment to leveraging innovative digital health solutions for enhanced healthcare offerings.
