Anti-hypertensive Drugs Market | USD 35.98 Billion by 2034
The anti-hypertensive-drugs-market size was exhibited at USD 24.49 billion in 2024 and is projected to hit around USD 35.98 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 3.92% during the forecast period 2025 to 2034.
The U.S. anti-hypertensive drugs market size is evaluated at USD 6.98 billion in 2024 and is projected to be worth around USD 10.25 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 3.55% from 2025 to 2034.
North America accounted for the largest revenue share of 38.0% in 2024 owing to the availability of anti-hypertensive drugs and development of new and more effective anti-hypertensive drugs. Moreover, surge in the incidence of hypertension and rise in obesity significantly contribute to the growth of the market in the region. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, obesity in the U.S. affects 100.1 million people in 2024, with adults 41.9% and 19.7% of children. These factors are contributing to the significant share of the region.
Asia Pacific is estimated to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. Increasing prevalence of hypertension in Asia Pacific region is a major driver for the market. As the population ages and lifestyles change, incidence of hypertension is rising. Excessive salt consumption is a significant contributor to the prevalence of hypertension in the Asia Pacific region. According to the WHO, China consumes excessive salt in food, an average of 9.3 grams per day in home cooking, which is approximately double as compared to the recommended amount. More than 27.5% of Chinese adults have high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. These factors are expected to drive the regional market growth.

Calcium channel blockers (CCB) segment held the largest market share of 26.23% in 2024 owing to lesser side effects exhibited by these drugs compared to other anti-hypertensive drugs. Moreover, long-acting CCBs provide more consistent blood pressure control throughout the day and require less frequent dosing. Their efficacy, safety profile, diverse options, and suitability for combination therapy make CCD a vital component of hypertension management. These factors are contributing to the large share of the market.
ACE inhibitors segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR of 4.96% over the forecast period.The rising prevalence of high blood pressure and increasing prescription of these drugs for cardiovascular diseases & other chronic conditions are major drivers for the segment growth. Moreover, availability of generic forms makes it a cost-effective option for hypertension management, which is anticipated to increase the prescription rate over the projected years.
Primary hypertension segment held the largest market share of 71.51% in 2024. It is the most common type of hypertension and accounts for majority of cases. According to the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey 2019, in the U.S. medical records, 33.2% of patients visit physician offices due to primary hypertension. Growing number of cases of essential hypertension, driven by factors such as lifestyle choices, an aging population, improved detection, and effective treatment guidelines, contributes to the expansion of the market.
Secondary hypertension segment is expected to grow with a significant CAGR of 4.34% over the forecast period attributed to increasing prevalence of underlying medical conditions such as kidney disease & hormonal disorders, improved diagnosis of secondary hypertension, and development of new anti-hypertensive drugs. Moreover, major pharmaceutical companies are investing in developing new anti-hypertensive drugs for secondary hypertension through various strategies such as collaborations, new product launches, mergers, and acquisitions.
Oral segment held the largest market share of 75.40% in 2024 and is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR. This growth is attributed to increased patient preference for oral medications and growing demand for fixed-dose combinations of anti-hypertensive drugs. Pharmaceutical companies constantly develop new oral anti-hypertensive drugs with improved efficacy and safety profiles. This is also driving the growth of the market's oral route of administration segment. In April 2021, the FDA approved Macitentan Tablets, 10 mg of Zydus Worldwide DMCC. These tablets are used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension and reduce the risks of disease progression.
Injectables segment held the second-largest share of the market. Injectable anti-hypertensive drugs are a crucial component of the treatment in cases of hypertensive emergencies, where rapid and precise blood pressure reduction is necessary. Moreover, increasing hospitalization due to life-threatening diseases and chronic conditions, such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney disease, is expected to increase the demand for injectable drugs.
Hospital pharmacy segment accounted for the largest market share of 54.0% in 2024. This can be attributed to increase in the number of hospitalizations due to high blood pressure and other chronic diseases. Additionally, anti-hypertensive drugs are prescription-based medications prescribed by specialized healthcare professionals who are available in hospital settings, contributing to segment's growth. A doctor's prescription enables healthcare professionals to assess the patient's overall health and medication regimen to minimize risks and manage any potential side effects or drug interactions. It is expected to fuel the demand for anti-hypertensive drugs in the hospital pharmacy segment.
Online pharmacy segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the projected timeframe attributed to increasing convenience, affordability, and privacy that online pharmacies offer to patients. Moreover, government bodies are ensuring that patients have access to the medications they need to manage their hypertension. For instance, in November 2019, the National Health Service (NHS) Digital Pharmacy Program UK introduced the Electronic Prescription Service (EPS). The EPS makes it easier for patients to obtain anti-hypertensive and other drugs.
