At 3.1% CAGR, Middle East & Africa Pharmacovigilance and Drug Safety Software Market is Projected to be Worth US$ 8.32 Million by 2031, says Business Market Insights
According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Middle East & Africa pharmacovigilance and drug safety software market was valued at US$ 6.50 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 8.32 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 3.1% from 2023 to 2031. Rise in incidences of adverse drug reactions and integration of software with AI, ML, and NLP are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Middle East & Africa pharmacovigilance and drug safety software market growth.
The cases of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are increasing worldwide owing to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases. As all drugs have the potential for adverse drug reactions, a risk-benefit analysis is necessary whenever a drug is prescribed. ADRs remain a challenge in modern healthcare, particularly given the growing complexity of therapeutics, an aging population, and rising multimorbidity across the globe. Pharmacovigilance software enables healthcare providers and pharmaceutical companies to collect, analyze systematically, and report data related to ADRs and overcome the challenges associated with it. The increasing prevalence of ADRs across the globe is propelling the demand for pharmacovigilance and drug safety software market growth.
Theophylline and respiratory depression exposure grows with the use of macrolide antibiotics and increased consumption of vitamin K, leading to ADRs. As more ADRs are reported and recognized, pharmaceutical companies, healthcare providers, and regulatory bodies face greater pressure to improve drug safety monitoring and reporting processes. Pharmacovigilance and drug safety software helps avoid the risks associated with excessive drug consumption. This software helps streamline the process of detecting, assessing, and preventing adverse effects, enabling faster response times and more accurate risk assessments. Thus, the rising incidences of adverse drug reactions fuel the pharmacovigilance and drug safety software market growth.
