Throat Lozenges Market is Auspiciously Holding to Dominate at a Sturdy CAGR of 4.20% During Forecast 2018-2023
Market
Overview:
Throat-lozenges are the most preferred go-to solution for sore
throat. Not only are the easily accessible but also cost-effective, which makes
them the preferred choice of medication among patients. The global Throat
Lozenges Market Analysis is anticipated to reach USD 6588.72 Mn at a CAGR
of 4.20% over the forecast period of 2018-2023.
The global Throat Lozenges Market is driven by the towering prevalence of common cold and flu
across the globe. Common cough and cold tend to occur all year round and are
contagious in nature due to which they keep on spreading. Due to the inherent
trend of resorting to over-the-counter medications, throat lozenges are
predominantly the first line of treatment in case of throat infections. These
lozenges are available in different flavors, and new flavors are being
introduced continually, which has increased adoption among consumers. In
addition, throat lozenges can be purchased and consumed without a prescription
due to which they can be commercialized faster. Throat lozenges have evolved to
become more effective in the past few years. Other factors supporting the
growth of the market include the development of new ingredients and rapid
product penetration in emerging economies.
Key players are focusing on the
introduction of more effective formulas for capitalizing on the thriving
demand. Flavor innovation is one of the major factors responsible for the
proliferation of the throat lozenges market over the next couple of years. On
the flip side, the increasing popularity of alternatives such as cough syrups,
throat sprays, and antiseptic gargling solutions are poised to undermine the
expansion of the throat lozenges market in the forthcoming years.
