Cardiomyopathy Medication Market SEGMENTATION

By Type

• Dilated Cardiomyopathy: The largest segment the causes of dilated cardiomyopathy vary from infections to genetic and birth disorders. As of June 2019, an estimated 750,000 people suffered from dilated cardiomyopathy in the US which contributes to the largest share of this segment. A large section of the geriatric population also has dilated cardiomyopathy, requiring prolonged use of medication, thereby driving market growth. 

• Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: The fastest-growing segment. The growth of the segment is driven by the increasing prevalence of diabetes and thyroid diseases across the globe, which are the two main factors for this type of cardiomyopathy.

• Restrictive Cardiomyopathy: Weakening of the valves and valve damage cause restrictive cardiomyopathy. It is crucial to manage this condition with medication to avoid expensive surgeries. This segment shows growth potential due to the critical nature of the condition.

• Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia: A relatively rare disorder affecting teens and young adults due to the formation of scar tissue and fatty deposits on the heart muscles; it is one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac arrests in the young section of the population. Lifelong medication is required to manage this condition, which is a driver for the growth of the segment.

• Unclassified Cardiomyopathy: Cardiomyopathy due to other causes, is a niche market segment.

Cardiomyopathy Medication Market By Treatment

• Anticoagulants: This type of medication is used widely for the treatment of cardiomyopathy.

• Antiarrhythmics: This medication is used primarily for the treatment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

• Anti-Hypertensives: Used in conjunction with other drugs to treat cardiomyopathy, this medication is useful in regulating blood pressure. The segment holds the largest market share, by treatment, owing to the widespread use of anti-hypertensives in the treatment of all types of cardiomyopathy.

• Cardiac Glycosides: These drugs strengthen the heart’s ability to pump blood by acting on the cellular sodium-potassium ATPase pump. Very useful for treating cardiomyopathy, especially arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia.

• Diuretics: Excellent for the treatment of restrictive cardiomyopathy, diuretics help in expelling excess water and salts from the body.

Cardiomyopathy Medication Market By End User

• Homecare: The fastest-growing segment due to the chronic nature of cardiomyopathy and the increasing number of elderly individuals who receive care at home. The growth of the segment can also be attributed to reduced treatment costs as well as the increasing access to medication.

• Hospitals and Clinics: The largest segment, hospitals and clinics are still the primary points for the distribution of cardiomyopathy medication. The presence of several hospitals dedicated to cardiology is another factor driving the growth of the segment.

• Others: Specialty clinics and ambulatory services are covered in this segment.

Cardiomyopathy Medication Market By Region

• Americas: Presently the largest regional market, the prevalence of cardiomyopathy is increasing in the Americas due to a combination of a growing geriatric population, genetics, and environmental factors. Additionally, rising domestic treatment rates backed by reimbursement for drugs in the US are driving market growth in the region.

• Europe: An emphasis on healthy lifestyles and careful medical monitoring ensure fewer cases of cardiomyopathy in Europe as compared to the Americas. However, the prevalence of the disease is rising in the region due to the presence of a large geriatric population.

• Asia-Pacific: The fastest-growing regional market owing to the increasing prevalence of conditions that lead to cardiomyopathy such as hypertension and congenital heart disorders. Expansion of cardiomyopathy medication manufacturers in the region and frequent product launches are likely to bolster market growth in the coming years.

• Middle East & Africa: The population in the Middle East & Africa is genetically predisposed to heart disease, including cardiomyopathy, which is driving the growth of the market.
