VELETRI (epoprostenol) is a prostacyclin vasodilator prescribed for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). It works by relaxing blood vessels in the lungs, reducing blood pressure, and enhancing blood flow. In contrast to Flolan, VELETRI does not need to be refrigerated, offering greater convenience for continuous infusion. It is given intravenously to help improve exercise tolerance and alleviate symptoms in patients with PAH.
The main product forms of VELETRI are injectable and inhalation. Veletri injectable is a prostacyclin (epoprostenol) therapy used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), helping to improve exercise capacity and alleviate symptoms. Its applications include pulmonary arterial hypertension and other related conditions, and the products are distributed through multiple channels, such as hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies.
Tariffs have increased the cost of imported prostacyclin APIs and infusion related components used in injectable and inhalation therapies. These impacts are most pronounced in North America and Europe, where production depends on specialized and tightly regulated supply chains. Rising tariff related expenses have influenced manufacturing costs, pricing strategies, and procurement planning for pulmonary vascular disease treatments. This has affected availability and affordability across hospital and specialty care settings. Positively, tariffs are supporting local pharmaceutical manufacturing initiatives, expanded domestic production capacity, and stronger regional supply chain resilience over the long term.
The veletri market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides veletri market statistics, including veletri industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a veletri market share, detailed veletri market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the veletri industry. This veletri market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The veletri market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.45 billion in 2025 to $1.56 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to clinical efficacy of epoprostenol, rising diagnosis of pah, hospital reliance on iv prostacyclins, limited oral alternatives, improved pah survival rates.
The veletri market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.07 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing pah prevalence, growth in specialty pah centers, rising demand for stable formulations, expansion of infusion therapy adoption, increased awareness of pah. Major trends in the forecast period include growing adoption of non-refrigerated prostacyclin therapies, increased use of continuous infusion pah treatments, rising demand for advanced pah vasodilators, expansion of hospital-based pah management, increased focus on improving pah patient mobility.
The rising prevalence of venous diseases is expected to drive the growth of the VELETRI market in the coming years. Venous diseases are disorders in which the veins experience impaired blood flow, leading to swelling, pain, and potential complications such as varicose veins and deep vein thrombosis. The increase in venous disease cases is influenced by factors including an aging population, sedentary lifestyles, obesity, and enhanced diagnostic capabilities. Veletri is utilized to improve exercise capacity and alleviate symptoms in patients with venous diseases affecting the pulmonary vasculature. For example, in January 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a US-based government organization, reported that up to 900,000 individuals in the United States are affected by venous thromboembolism (VTE) annually, with an estimated 60,000 to 100,000 deaths attributed to VTE each year. Consequently, the growing prevalence of venous diseases is supporting the expansion of the VELETRI market.
The increasing healthcare expenditure is expected to drive the growth of the VELETRI market in the coming years. Healthcare expenditure refers to the total financial resources allocated to medical goods and services to maintain and enhance population health. Healthcare spending is rising as an aging population requires more frequent medical attention and long-term health services. Higher healthcare expenditure enables greater use of VELETRI by improving access to specialized PAH care, expanding reimbursement for high-cost therapies, and strengthening the clinical infrastructure necessary for continuous IV treatment. For example, in April 2025, according to the Office for National Statistics, a UK government department, total healthcare spending increased by 6.5% in nominal terms and by 2.4% in real terms between 2023 and 2024 after adjusting for inflation. Thus, the rising healthcare expenditure is driving the growth of the VELETRI market.
Major companies operating in the Veletri space are concentrating on broadening access through generic formulations, such as FDA-approved epoprostenol sodium injection, to offer more affordable treatment options for patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. Generic Veletri refers to therapeutically equivalent versions of the branded epoprostenol product that comply with FDA standards for quality, safety, and efficacy, delivering the same clinical outcomes at a reduced cost. For example, in October 2025, Mylan Pharmaceuticals, a US-based pharmaceutical firm, received FDA approval for its generic Veletri (epoprostenol sodium) injection. The product is available in multiple vial strengths, including 20 mg/20 mL, 50 mg/20 mL, 100 mg/20 mL, and 200 mg/20 mL, and provides the same prostacyclin mimetic activity as the branded version, supporting improved exercise tolerance and symptom management in PAH patients.
