Intra-Articular Corticosteroid Market - Global Industry Trend Analysis 2013 to 2017 and Forecast 2018 - 2028
Market Overview
Over the past decades, intra-articular corticosteroid has been widely used in knee osteoarthritis. Intra-articular corticosteroid is a medicine which is directly injected into the joint space of the painful, inflamed arthritic joint. Intra-articular corticosteroid is majorly used for the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Intra-articular corticosteroid injections provide a short term reduction in osteoarthritis pain. An intra-articular corticosteroid is generally given when the pain has not responded to more conservative treatments like physical therapy, pain relievers, and oral anti-inflammatory drugs.
The increasing prevalence of osteoarthritis is considered as an important factor in driving the growth of the global intra-articular corticosteroid market. Osteoarthritis is a disabling joint disorder associated with a breakdown of the cartilage of the joints and is affecting millions of people. Globally, there are around more than 8.9 million fractures caused by osteoporosis. It is expected to be the most common cause of disability in adults.
Furthermore, the increasing number of road accidents and sports-related injuries are also driving the market growth of intra-articular corticosteroid market.
However, dropout rates were increased due to the side effects (like local site reaction, increase in blood glucose levels and blood pressure, and infection) associated with the intra-articular corticosteroid. This has reduced the adoption rate among the targeted population and further hampered the growth of the global intra-articular corticosteroid market globally.
