COVID-19 drug-associated APIs constitute the active pharmaceutical ingredients utilized in the formulation of medications targeting the virus. These APIs serve as the fundamental chemical components responsible for the pharmacological effects within the human body.
The primary classes of drugs categorized as COVID-19 drug-associated APIs encompass antimalarials, bronchodilators, antibiotics, antivirals, and other related categories. Antimalarial drugs, specifically, are antiparasitic agents used to treat or prevent malaria, commonly sourced from organic origins. These drugs exist in various forms, including generic and branded versions, and are involved in different business models such as captive API (produced for internal use) and merchant API (commercially available for external sales).

This COVID-19 drug-associated APIs 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 COVID-19 drug associated apis market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.37 billion in 2023 to $6.75 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth observed in the historical period can be primarily attributed to several key factors. These include the increasing prevalence of COVID-19 infections, heightened awareness regarding treatment options available for COVID-19, expanded accessibility to drugs targeting the virus, a growing demand for COVID-19 medications used as prophylaxis, government initiatives supporting healthcare measures, and efforts to strengthen the resilience of the supply chain for these drugs. These factors collectively contributed to the growth and development of the market for COVID-19 drug-associated APIs during that period.
The COVID-19 drug associated apis market size is expected to see strongly grown in the next few years. It will grow to $8.52 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is expected to stem from several significant factors. These include the development of novel modalities for COVID-19 drugs, a surge in clinical trials exploring potential COVID-19 treatments, a continued rise in demand for COVID-19 vaccines, the emergence of new virus variants necessitating ongoing research and drug development, vaccination campaigns aiming for widespread immunization, and a heightened focus on pandemic preparedness measures.
The surging demand for key pharmaceuticals like antiretrovirals, antimalarials, and respiratory drugs has led to increased need for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) crucial in manufacturing COVID-19 medications. Remdesivir and Favipiravir are among the prominent antiviral drugs used for COVID-19 treatment. Remdesivir gained emergency approval in the USA and Japan, while the FDA approved Airsupra for bronchoconstriction and asthma prevention. The demand for bronchodilators escalated significantly due to COVID-19's respiratory impact. Consequently, this increased demand for antivirals, antimalarials, and bronchodilators is expected to drive the market for COVID-19 drug-associated APIs.
Government initiatives focused on healthcare research and development are set to fuel growth in the COVID-19 drug-associated API market. These initiatives encompass specific programs, policies, or actions undertaken by government bodies to address healthcare needs. For instance, in 2022, the UK government allocated £260 million to bolster healthcare research and manufacture, aiming to support NHS-led health research, diagnostics, and life sciences manufacturing. Such initiatives are pivotal in fostering an environment conducive to the development, production, and distribution of COVID-19 drug-associated APIs.
Major pharmaceutical players are strategizing capacity expansions to meet the escalating demand for COVID-19 drug-related APIs amid rising global COVID-19 cases. Merck & Co., Inc., in partnership with India's Heavy Water Board, aims to delve into the deuterated raw compound industry, potentially worth $1 billion in the next decade. Merck aims to support sectors like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and electronics by supplying high-quality compounds. Avigan, currently undergoing clinical trials, is being tested for its effectiveness in treating COVID-19 patients.
Top companies in the COVID-19 drug-associated APIs market are focusing on innovation, such as oral treatments, to gain a competitive advantage. In 2023, Pfizer Inc.'s PAXLOVID, an oral SARS-CoV-2 protease inhibitor approved by the FDA, demonstrated an 89% reduction in hospitalization or death risk compared to a placebo in high-risk, non-hospitalized adults with COVID-19. Designed for early administration, it aims to prevent severe illness and hospitalization, making a significant impact in managing the infection.
In January 2023, Sterling Pharma Solutions, a US-based pharmaceutical company, completed the acquisition of an undisclosed active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacturing facility from Novartis, a prominent pharmaceutical company based in the US. This strategic acquisition marks an expansion of Sterling's capabilities in API manufacturing. The deal also includes a continued supply arrangement between Sterling and Novartis, ensuring the manufacturing of several APIs utilized in cardiovascular, immunology, and oncology medications. Novartis AG, known for its production of active pharmaceutical ingredients, initiated this transfer as part of their strategic reorganization.
