Dyspnea refers to difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, describing the sensation of not getting enough air into the lungs. It can present as chest tightness, gasping for air, or increased effort to breathe. Various clinical methods and tools are used to assess its severity, impact on daily life, and underlying causes.
The primary treatment options for dyspnea include supplemental oxygen therapy and relaxation therapy. Supplemental oxygen therapy involves delivering oxygen to improve blood oxygen levels, assisting patients with respiratory conditions or those recovering from severe illnesses. The drug classes used for treatment include anti-anxiety medications, antibiotics, anticholinergic agents, corticosteroids, and others. These medications are administered through various routes, such as oral, inhalation, and other methods. Dyspnea treatments are utilized across different healthcare settings, including hospitals, home care, specialty clinics, ambulatory services, and other medical facilities.

This dyspnea market 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 dyspnea market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.26 billion in 2024 to $6.75 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to increasing awareness of respiratory diseases, the rising incidence of lifestyle-related factors, the expanding geriatric population, a surge in clinical trials, and growing supportive government initiatives.
The dyspnea market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.97 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, rising demand for personalized medicine, worsening pollution levels, greater adoption of telemedicine, and the implementation of more favorable regulations. Key trends in the forecast period include strategic collaborations, technological advancements, the development of novel inhalers, the expansion of personalized medicine, and the rise of targeted therapies.
The rising prevalence of respiratory diseases is expected to drive the growth of the dyspnea market in the coming years. Respiratory diseases affect the lungs and other parts of the respiratory system, leading to difficulty in breathing and impaired oxygen exchange. Common conditions include asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and tuberculosis (TB). The increase in respiratory diseases is attributed to factors such as air pollution, smoking, exposure to environmental toxins, and climate change. Dyspnea plays a key role in diagnosing and managing respiratory conditions by indicating lung function impairment, guiding treatment strategies, and monitoring disease progression. For example, in November 2023, the National Asthma Council, an Australia-based non-profit organization, reported that in 2022, Australia recorded 467 asthma-related deaths, an increase from 355 deaths in 2021 including 299 females and 168 males. As a result, the growing prevalence of respiratory diseases is fueling the expansion of the dyspnea market.
The rise in healthcare expenditure is another key factor contributing to the growth of the dyspnea market. Healthcare expenditure encompasses total financial resources spent on medical services, including public and private spending on hospital care, pharmaceuticals, and preventive treatments. The increasing healthcare expenditure is driven by the rising demand for advanced medical treatments, an aging population, and the growing burden of chronic diseases that require long-term care and costly interventions. Higher investments facilitate the development and accessibility of novel therapies, such as inhalers, oxygen therapy, and biologics, leading to improved patient outcomes. Additionally, increased spending enhances healthcare infrastructure and specialized care, enabling early diagnosis and effective management of dyspnea-related conditions. For instance, in December 2023, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, a US-based federal agency, reported that U.S. healthcare spending grew by 4.1% in 2022, reaching $4.5 trillion, surpassing the 3.2% growth recorded in 2021. Consequently, rising healthcare expenditure is supporting the growth of the dyspnea market.
Leading companies in the dyspnea market are focusing on the development of innovative treatments, such as phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors, to enhance therapeutic efficacy and provide improved relief for patients with respiratory conditions. PDE inhibitors work by blocking the activity of phosphodiesterase enzymes, increasing cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP levels in cells, which can enhance vasodilation, reduce inflammation, or improve cardiac function. For example, in May 2024, Verona Pharma Plc, a UK-based biopharmaceutical company, announced its plans for the anticipated U.S. launch of ensifentrine, a first-in-class dual PDE 3/4 inhibitor for COPD treatment, in Q3 2024, pending FDA approval. Ensifentrine, a nebulized treatment for COPD, has demonstrated significant reductions in exacerbation rates and improvements in dyspnea in Phase III clinical trials. The company has secured $650 million in financing to support the drug's commercial launch and ongoing development, including a planned Phase II trial for a fixed-dose combination with glycopyrrolate as a maintenance therapy for COPD patients.
