However, the Asian market is slated to grow at the highest CAGR inthe coming five years and serves as a revenue pocket for the companies involved in the manufacturing of needles.
Over the years, the demand for pen needles is likely to increase owing to favorable reimbursement environment in North America and Europe, strong government support in the Pacific region, advantages of insulin pens over syringes and vials, technological advancements in pen needle technologies, and growing diabetic population. However, poor reimbursement structure in developing countries, severe shortage of Endocrinologists in the U.S., threats involved in reuse of needles, rising incidents of needlestick injuries (NSIs), and alternative drug delivery methods are restraining the growth of this market.
