(PharmaNewsWire.Com, December 17, 2019 ) Market Overview Heparin is an anticoagulant or blood thinner and is widely used to treat and prevent blood clots in the veins, arteries, or lung.
Heparin is also used before surgeries to reduce the risk of blood clots.
With approximately 500 million doses of heparin being used worldwide every year, the annual market for Heparin was valued at USD 10 billion in 2017.
Market Growth and Trends The market has significant growth opportunities owing to growing potential applications of heparin ranging from anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor applications to prevention of infectious disease and use as nano-carriers for drug delivery.
Also, the rising number of coagulation disorders such as venous thromboembolism (VTE) will also fuel market growth.
However, the wide availability of alternative anticoagulants such as warfarin, coumarins, and oral anticoagulants are expected to hamper heparin sales, thereby negatively impacting market growth.
Market Segmentation The Global Heparin market report segments the market by product type, by source, by formulation, and by region.
Based on product type, the market is categorized into three classes, namely unfractionated heparin, low molecular weight heparin, and ultra-low molecular weight heparin.
Based on the type of formulation, the market is segmented into oral and parenteral. Based on the source, the market is divided into bovine and porcine.
Before the early 1990s, bovine heparin was widely available and used in the US. However, concerns about the use of heparin from bovine sources eventually led to the voluntary withdrawal of all bovine heparin products from the US market.
