Market Analysis
The last of couple of years have seen an ever-increasing interest and demand in wearable injectors. This in turn has boosted the growth of the wearable injectors market considerably. It is projected to grow at a whopping 15.2% CAGR over the forecast period (2018-2023). Wearable injectors represent a novel class of injectable drug delivery system. It can be worn on the patient’s body as it delivers into the body the prescribed drug. As opposed to an insulin pump, a wearable injector is designed for just a single use. Post pushing the injection, the patient can peel it off and discard it. A wearable injector is largely used for delivering biologic drugs which a patient cannot administer through the standard handheld device. Most of these devices are used for treating autoimmune diseases such as Crohn’s disease/IBD, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and for insulin delivery. A wearable injector is convenient, user-friendly and will reduce the requirement for numerous painful injections. Also known as patch pumps or bolus injectors, the wearable injectors are utilized for subcutaneously administering insulin as well as other drugs which need extended delivery period and large dose volumes.
There are many factors that is fueling the growth of the Wearable Injectors Market. The different market trends and factors in this market according to an analysis performed by Market Research Future (MRFR) include upsurge in diabetes and cancer cases, use of cutting-edge technological products, rise in the incidence of needlestick injuries, growing need for 24/7 monitoring, shift to injectables that can be self-administered and prevalence of diseases that are lifestyle-associated such as hypertension and diabetes. On the contrary, lack of skilled labor is likely to hamper the wearable injectors market growth.

Jan 2019- Enable Injections, a Cincinnati based company has come up with its latest painless wearable injector. A little bigger than a cookie, this injector will enable patients in self-administering drugs through the touch of a button. This latest innovation will help in eliminating the requirement for those long intravenous treatments given at the doctor’s office thereby allowing patients to comfortably self-administer treatment and in accordance to their time. In fact, the biggest perk of this needle is it is never exposed and is of the smallest size possible. This needle will help in controlling pressure as well as the flow rate that in turn will reduce the pain related to the procedure.
