The inhalers segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. One of the primary-stage medication used for various COPD and asthma cases are inhalers. Suitable inhalers are recommended that are available as MDIs or DPIs based on patient conditions. The MDIs are short-acting bronchodilators that use pressurized drugs to treat patients with breathlessness whereas DPIs are long-acting bronchodilators that use a dry, powdered form of drugs, which can be inhaled with full lung capacity to get relief from breathing or pulmonary disorders.

The inhalers segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 31.22 million in 2017. The main advantage of MDI is that the effect of the drugs is immediate and can last for four to six hours, offering relief against asthma or COPD-related emergencies. On the other hand, DPIs can offer relief for 12 to 24 hours and can be used once or twice per day. There is an increasing preference for inhalers by patients as the first line of treatment due to the rising prevalence of asthma and COPD. There is increasing adoption of smart inhalers among patients as it helps to get consultations from their physicians, and they can remotely access the recorded data of the smart inhalers and prescribe required medications to patients. Hence, such factors are expected to fuel the growth of this segment which in turn will drive the market growth during the forecast period.
There are numerous applications for smart inhalers in treating asthma, as they provide advanced monitoring, data collection, and communication capabilities that can enhance medication adherence, asthma management, and overall patient outcomes. The main feature of smart inhalers is that they monitor medication usage and send reminders to patients when it's time to take their inhalers. As a result, it enables patients to follow their prescribed medication schedule, resulting in better symptom control and reduced risk of asthma exacerbations. Furthermore, it allows us to monitor and manage the child's medication usage and share data with healthcare providers. Hence, these factors are expected to fuel the growth of this segment which, in turn, will drive the market growth during the forecast period.
There are various applications of smart inhalers in the treatment and management of COPD. COPD can be referred to as a chronic lung condition characterized by airflow limitation and often comprises symptoms including shortness of breath, coughing, and wheezing. The main feature of this technology is that it tracks inhaler usage and offers reminders, ensuring that patients take their prescribed medications as directed. In addition, it helps in generating COPD-specific action plans, enabling patients to manage symptom exacerbations, and offering guidance on when to adjust medications or seek medical attention. Hence, such factors are expected to fuel the growth of this segment which in turn will drive the market growth during the forecast period.
