Increased Demand for Flavored Tablets
One of the major factors affecting the growth of flavors in the over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceuticals market is a significant increase in demand for flavored tablets. Oral medicine formulations have shown steadiness in demand over the last five years. Due to the increasing patient-centric approaches, pharma companies are increasingly pushing oral dose formulations.

Increased Demand for Dietary Supplements
The flavor market for pharmaceutical and healthcare applications from dietary supplements is expected to approach USD 550 million soon.

Furthermore, people like to try flavors in supplements such as mango, vanilla, strawberry, and many more. This provides the industry with significant growth opportunities.
Increased R&D in Pediatric Formulations
Flavored medications for children have been subjected to new regulations.

They are also very appealing to youngsters, babies, and toddlers. As a result, the demand for flavored pediatric medications is expanding, fueling the expansion of flavors into the over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceuticals market.
