Emphysema treatment involves medications and therapies used to manage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a condition that damages the air sacs in the lungs and makes breathing difficult. Treatments for emphysema are aimed at controlling symptoms and slowing the progression of the disease.
The main treatment options for emphysema include smoking cessation, bronchodilators, steroids, leukotriene modifiers, supplemental oxygen, antibiotics, gene therapy, surgical procedures, lung transplants, and others. Smoking cessation refers to the process of quitting smoking to lower the risk of cancer and other serious health problems by reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms while preventing nicotine binding. These treatments are distributed through channels such as online providers, drug stores and retail pharmacies, and hospital pharmacies, and are used by various end users including clinics, surgical centers, and others.
Tariffs have impacted the emphysema treatment market by increasing costs of imported medical devices, drugs, and gene therapy components, disrupting the global supply chain. Bronchodilators, supplemental oxygen systems, and advanced therapies are most affected, particularly in North America and Asia-Pacific regions. Some companies are localizing manufacturing and sourcing to mitigate price hikes, which can also accelerate domestic innovation. While tariffs create cost challenges, they may encourage investments in regional production and self-sufficiency in high-value treatments.

The emphysema treatment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.4 billion in 2025 to $5.8 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing prevalence of copd, growing smoking population, limited awareness of early diagnosis, traditional inhalation therapies adoption, rising hospital infrastructure in developing regions.
The emphysema treatment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.91 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to advancements in gene therapy, rising adoption of digital health solutions, growing home healthcare services, development of portable oxygen devices, increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries. Major trends in the forecast period include personalized treatment plans, home-based care solutions, minimally invasive therapies, telehealth & remote monitoring, advanced pulmonary rehabilitation programs.
The increasing prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) cases is anticipated to drive the growth of the emphysema treatment market in the coming years. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a group of progressive lung disorders that cause airflow limitation and breathing difficulties, primarily including emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Emphysema treatments play a vital role in managing COPD by alleviating symptoms, improving lung function, and slowing disease progression. For example, in December 2023, according to a research study published by JAMA Network Open, a medical journal of the American Medical Association, the global burden of COPD was projected to rise significantly, with cases worldwide expected to reach nearly 600 million by 2050, representing a 23% increase in prevalence. As a result, the rising prevalence of COPD is contributing to the expansion of the emphysema treatment market.
Major companies operating in the emphysema treatment market are focusing on the development of innovative products, such as inhalation aerosols, to strengthen their competitive position. Inhalation aerosols are pharmaceutical formulations delivered as a fine mist or spray, allowing medications to reach the lungs directly for effective symptom control. For instance, in July 2023, Viatris Inc., in collaboration with Kindeva Drug Delivery L.P., launched Breyna (budesonide and formoterol fumarate dihydrate) Inhalation Aerosol. This product became the first FDA-approved generic version of AstraZeneca's Symbicort for the management of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and emphysema. Available in 80 mcg/4.5 mcg and 160 mcg/4.5 mcg strengths, this drug-device combination represents a significant step toward providing more affordable and accessible respiratory treatments. Breyna is indicated for maintenance therapy to manage airflow obstruction, reduce COPD exacerbations, and control asthma symptoms in patients aged six years and older, including those with emphysema.
In March 2023, UC Davis Health, a US-based academic health institution, partnered with Propeller Health to deliver personalized care for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma using remote patient monitoring technology. Through this collaboration, eligible patients received access to Propeller Health's remote monitoring services, which combine sensors, a smartphone application, and a web platform to support individualized treatment for high-risk COPD and asthma patients, including those affected by emphysema.
