The global statin market is currently witnessing stable growth. Statin is a lipid-lowering medication, an agent that is consumed by patients to reduce their blood cholesterol levels. Atorvastatin, rosuvastatin, lovastatin and simvastatin are the most common types of statins available in the market. They aid in preventing the instances of atherosclerosis and heart attacks and have significant anti-inflammatory and plaque-stabilizing effects. These drugs also aid in minimizing vascular inflammation and oxidative stress in the body. Besides this, statin interferes with the production of enzymes that are crucial for the liver to produce cholesterol, thus aiding in lowering the overall blood cholesterol levels in the body.

The increasing prevalence of hypercholesterolemia across the globe is among the key factors driving the growth of the market. This disorder is highly prevalent among the geriatric population and individuals suffering from other ailments, such as diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), which is facilitating product adoption across both the developed and emerging nations. Furthermore, increasing consumer preference for over-the-counter (OTC) drugs is another factor contributing to the market growth. In comparison to brand name drugs, OTC variants are usually more affordable. Additionally, the growing adoption of combination therapies that use statin with other cholesterol diminishing compounds, such as ezetimibe, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Research has found statin-ezetimibe combination therapy to be capable of achieving near-normal lipid profiles in familial hypercholesterolemia patients and significantly reducing the risk of CVDs occurrence. Other factors, including improving healthcare infrastructure and growing health consciousness among consumers, are projected to drive the market further.
