United States Heparin Market

United States Heparin Market Overview:

The United States heparin market size reached USD 2.4 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 3.9 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.42% during 2025-2033. The growing aging population, advancements in anticoagulant therapies, increasing surgical procedures, rising incidence of cardiovascular and thrombotic disorders, the growing use of heparin in dialysis, increasing awareness of anticoagulant therapies, and the expansion of healthcare infrastructure are some of the major factors propelling the market growth.

United States Heparin Market Trends:

Rising Prevalence of Cardiovascular and Thrombotic Disorders

The United States Heparin market is primarily driven by the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular and thrombotic disorders, such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. According to the 2024 Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics, a report of U.S. and Global Data from the American Heart Association, heart disease has been the leading cause of death in the U.S. for 100 years. The overall number of cardiovascular-related deaths was 931,578, an increase of less than 3,000 from the 928,741 deaths reported last year. Last year, the number of deaths increased by more than 54,000 over the previous year. Cardiovascular deaths include deaths from coronary heart disease (40.3%), stroke (17.5%), other minor CVD causes combined (17.1%), high blood pressure (13.4%), heart failure (9.1%) and diseases of the arteries (2.6%). The age-adjusted death rate from cardiovascular disease increased to 233.3 per 100,000, up 4.0% from 224.4 per 100,000 reported last year, whereas the rate had increased 4.6% in the previous year. These conditions require anticoagulant therapy to prevent clot formation, positioning heparin as a crucial treatment option. The aging population further contributes to this demand, as older individuals are more susceptible to these conditions.

Growing Surgeries and Dialysis Procedures

The increasing number of surgical procedures and dialysis treatments in the U.S. significantly fuels the heparin market growth. According to industry reports, about 808,000 Americans are living with kidney failure as recorded in a survey in 2023. More than 557,000 Americans are on dialysis. Moreover, the US performed the most procedures worldwide with over 6.1 million procedures, followed by Brazil with 3.3 million, which is first in surgical procedures with 2.1 million. Heparin is commonly used during surgeries to prevent blood clots, and in dialysis to maintain blood flow through the extracorporeal circuit. With advancements in medical technology and healthcare infrastructure, the frequency of these procedures continues to rise, thereby boosting the demand for heparin.
