3. Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (India), Johnson & Johnson Private Limited (US) and Galderma (Switzerland) are the Major Players in the Topical Drug Delivery Market

Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (India), Galderma (Switzerland), Johnson & Johnson Private Limited (US), GlaxoSmithKline Plc. (UK), and Bausch Health Companies Inc. (Canada) are the leading players in the topical drug delivery market.

The global topical drug delivery market is projected to reach USD 317.8 billion by 2027 from USD 207.4 billion in 2022, at a CAGR of 8.9%. The growth of the topical drug delivery market is mainly driven by factors such as growing prevalence of skin cancer, high demand for drugs that can be self-administered, growing prevalence of chronic diseases which is due to rise in geriatric population, and switching from conventional needle injections to transdermal patches. On the other hand, preference of alternative modes of drug delivery is limiting the market growth to some extent.
