(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Significant opportunities in the ODT market include leveraging technological innovations like nanotechnology and improved taste-masking. Expanding applications beyond CNS disorders, tapping into emerging markets, increasing OTC demand, and fostering strategic partnerships can drive growth.

Dublin, Oct. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Orally Disintegrating Tablet Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2032 - By Product, Technology, Grade, Application, End-user, Region: (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.
The global Orally Disintegrating Tablet market size is likely to be valued at US$ 27.2 Bn in 2025 and is estimated to reach US$ 51 Bn by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 9.40% during the forecast period 2025-2032.

The increasing preference for convenient dosage forms, rising patient compliance needs, and advancements in drug delivery technologies are key factors driving market growth. ODTs are particularly popular among pediatric, geriatric, and psychiatric patients due to their ease of administration without the need for water.
The growing demand for faster onset of action, coupled with the introduction of innovative drug delivery technologies, is fueling the expansion of this segment. Technological advancements in formulation, taste masking, and packaging are further supporting global adoption.
Market Growth Drivers
The growth of the global Orally Disintegrating Tablet market is primarily driven by the increasing prevalence of neurological disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and allergies requiring long-term medication. Rising geriatric and pediatric populations, who often face swallowing difficulties, are fueling demand for ODTs.

Additionally, improved bioavailability and patient-friendly administration are making ODTs the preferred choice for multiple therapeutic classes. Pharmaceutical companies are also expanding their ODT portfolios to target emerging economies, where healthcare access and awareness are improving. The growing shift toward patient-centric drug delivery systems is further propelling market expansion.
Market Restraints
Despite strong growth prospects, the ODT market faces challenges such as formulation limitations for high-dose drugs, as the tablet's structure must maintain rapid disintegration without compromising mechanical strength. Manufacturing costs are generally higher due to specialized equipment and formulation processes.

Stability issues, particularly in high-humidity conditions, also restrict the use of ODTs in certain regions. Additionally, regulatory complexities for taste-masking agents and excipients can slow down product approvals. Limited awareness in low-income markets remains another hurdle to widespread adoption.
Market Opportunities
The ODT market offers significant opportunities through technological innovations such as nanotechnology-based formulations, improved taste-masking techniques, and novel excipient combinations. Expanding therapeutic applications beyond central nervous system (CNS) disorders to gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and allergy treatments is opening new growth avenues.

Increasing penetration in emerging markets, supported by rising healthcare expenditure, presents substantial expansion potential. Furthermore, strategic partnerships between pharmaceutical companies and contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) can enhance production scalability and global market reach. The growing demand for over-the-counter (OTC) ODTs also presents a lucrative business opportunity.
Regional Outlook
North America is expected to dominate the Orally Disintegrating Tablet market due to strong healthcare infrastructure, high adoption of innovative drug delivery systems, and a well-established pharmaceutical industry. The U.S. leads the region, driven by a large patient base for CNS and cardiovascular disorders. Europe holds a significant share, supported by regulatory approvals and high investments in R&D.

Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness the fastest growth, driven by an expanding geriatric population, improving healthcare access, and increased awareness of advanced dosage forms in countries such as India, China, and Japan. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are emerging markets, benefiting from growing pharmaceutical imports and rising chronic disease prevalence.
