Dulaglutide is a drug used to control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It belongs to the class of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, which imitate the effects of the natural hormone GLP-1. Dulaglutide is given through a subcutaneous injection, usually once a week.
Dulaglutide is available primarily in syringe pens and multi-dose bottles. The syringe pen is a device for injecting medications such as dulaglutide. It integrates the medication and needle into a single, user-friendly instrument. This allows patients to adjust the dosage as needed, offering precision and convenience. The product is utilized in medical insurance, pharmaceuticals, and clinical research, and is available through various distribution channels, including hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a significant impact on the healthcare sector, especially in the supply of essential medical devices, diagnostic equipment, and pharmaceuticals. Hospitals and healthcare providers are grappling with higher costs for imported surgical tools, imaging systems, and consumables like syringes and catheters, many of which have limited domestic substitutes. These escalating expenses are putting pressure on healthcare budgets, prompting some providers to delay equipment upgrades or pass increased costs on to patients. Furthermore, tariffs on raw materials and components are disrupting the manufacturing of vital drugs and devices, leading to supply chain delays. In response, the industry is adopting diversified sourcing strategies, expanding local production where feasible, and pushing for tariff exemptions on critical medical products.
The dulaglutide market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides dulaglutide market statistics, including dulaglutide industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a dulaglutide market share, detailed dulaglutide market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the dulaglutide industry. This dulaglutide research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The dulaglutide market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.17 billion in 2024 to $4.47 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes, increasing utilization, increasing research and development investments, increased focus on chronic diseases, and growth in personalized medicine.
The dulaglutide market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.97 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing clinical trials, rising obesity rates, rising aging population, growing telemedicine services, growing endocrinology clinics, and growing use of electronic health records. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, personalized medicine, telemedicine, digital health platforms, and mobile health apps.
The forecast of 7.5% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.3% from the previous estimate for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Tariff escalations are likely to burden U.S. patients by driving up costs for GLP-1 receptor agonist autoinjectors and prefilled pens sourced from Ireland and Puerto Rico, reducing medication adherence. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The rising prevalence of type 2 diabetes is expected to drive the growth of the dulaglutide market in the coming years. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition where the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough, leading to high blood sugar levels. The growing incidence of type 2 diabetes is attributed to increasing obesity rates, poor dietary habits, and sedentary lifestyles. Dulaglutide helps manage type 2 diabetes by boosting insulin secretion and lowering glucagon levels in response to food intake, which helps reduce blood sugar levels. For example, in April 2023, a report from The British Diabetic Association, a UK-based diabetes charity, revealed that 4.3 million people in the UK have diabetes, with over 2.4 million at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Additionally, registration numbers for 2021-22 increased by 148,951. Therefore, the rising prevalence of type 2 diabetes is fueling the growth of the dulaglutide market.
Leading companies in the dulaglutide market are actively developing innovative products, including anti-diabetic drugs, to meet the rising demand for effective diabetes mellitus management. Anti-diabetic medications regulate blood sugar levels by enhancing insulin sensitivity, stimulating insulin production, or slowing glucose absorption from the digestive tract. For instance, in January 2024, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited launched the first biosimilar of the anti-diabetic drug Liraglutide in India under the brand name Lirafit. This strategic move marks Glenmark's entry into the biosimilar market for anti-diabetic drugs, offering patients a more affordable treatment option while maintaining comparable efficacy and safety profiles to the original drug, meeting stringent regulatory standards.
In August 2023, Lupin Limited acquired two diabetic brands from Boehringer Ingelheim for €26 million ($28 million). This acquisition strengthens Lupin's position in the diabetes care market by expanding its product portfolio and market presence in diabetes management. Boehringer Ingelheim, a Germany-based company, is involved in the development and marketing of dulaglutide, a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes.
