Hello Blucken-ga,

Thank you for your question.

Global:

According to this Nov 2000 article that appeared in the European
Pharmaceutical Review, by Edward H. Erickson, Division Vice President,
3M Drug Delivery Systems Division, the current worldwide transdermal
market is approximately $2.2 billion and is expected to grow at least
10 to 12 percent annually.

“The business facts of the transdermal market are quite attractive.
Although the current worldwide transdermal market is less than
10 percent (approximately $2.2 billion) of the overall $28 billion
drug delivery market; today’s market research shows transdermal drug
delivery has recently experienced a healthy annual growth rate of 25
percent. This rate outpaces the percentage of growth in oral drug
delivery (plus 2 percent) and the inhalation market (plus 20 percent).
Long term, pharmaceutical product sales in the drug delivery market
are expected to continue strong growth. Worldwide drug delivery sales
are expected to grow at least 10-12 percent annually over the next
eight years. Because of the reformulation of conventional drugs,
delivery of biotech drugs, genomics, and the use of innovative drug
delivery in early stages of development, the pharmaceutical industry
will drive the drug delivery market to new heights. Transdermal drug
delivery can be expected to play an increasingly significant role in
the success of the expanding drug delivery industry.

In the article “An overview of drug delivery technologies” by    
Gursharan Moonga (7 September 1999), you can observe the U.S.
transdermal market in the table “Drug Delivery Products: 1996 US Sales
by Administration Route” below:

Route             Sales US$ billion        % Share

An interesting article

“In the U.S. Alternative drug-delivery systems that bring medication
to targeted areas in the body generated $16 billion in U.S. sales in
2000 and are likely to grow to more than $27 billion by year 2005.(..)
Genomics will lead to the identification of a multitude of new
proteins with therapeutic potential. Scientists are now actively
pursuing alternative ways of delivering proteins, particularly
therapeutics for the treatment of chronic conditions. Inhaled,
transdermal, and transmucosal delivery feature strongly.”
