The Asia Pacific insulin market size is expected to reach USD 7.09 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing regional prevalence of diabetes, increasing market penetration rates of modern insulin products in emerging markets such as India and China is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. Furthermore, patent expiration of key products such as Lantus is expected to trigger the manufacturing of biosimilars from local manufacturers such as Biocon.
Long-acting analog dominated the overall market in terms of revenue share in 2013, with revenue estimated at USD 2,051.9 million. High prices coupled with relatively higher efficacies exhibited by these products account for its large share. Rapid-acting analogs followed the long-acting segment in 2013 accounting for a revenue share of over 25.0% on account of their high market penetration rates in developed markets such as Australia and Japan.

The long-acting segment dominated the regional market in 2023 with a share of 53.07%. This growth is primarily driven by the rising need for long-acting insulin due to applications in Type I diabetes and II diabetes across the region and the globe.
