How has the cough remedies market evolved, and what factors have shaped its growth?
The rising respiratory diseases are expected to propel the growth of the cough remedies market going forward. Respiratory diseases encompass a broad spectrum of conditions that affect the organs and tissues involved in breathing and gas exchange in air-breathing animals. The rising respiratory diseases are due to increased exposure to environmental pollutants, overcrowded living conditions, and increased emission of smoke by vehicles. Cough remedies such as expectorants help thin mucus in the airways, making it easier for patients to clear their lungs through coughing. This can help alleviate discomfort and promote healing, especially in patients with sore throats or irritated airways. For instance, in July 2024, according to the American Lung Association, a US-based voluntary health organization, the percentage of the total US population diagnosed with Asthma in 2021 was 12.9% which increased to 13.5% in 2022. Therefore, rising respiratory diseases drive the cough remedies market.
