NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The global sugar excipients market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% from 2016 to 2021, to reach USD 1,060.6 million by 2021 from USD 860.6 million in 2016. Growth in this market is primarily attributed to increasing use of co-processed excipients, rapid growth in the generics market due to the patent expiration of many blockbuster drugs, and increasing development of orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs).

On the basis of products, the market is segmented into actual sugars, sugar alcohols, and artificial sweeteners. The actual sugars accounted for the largest share of the sugar excipients market in 2015, owing to its high utilization in oral formulations and pediatric formulations due to its non-toxicity and negligible reaction with drugs.
On the basis of type, powders/granules segment accounted for the largest share of the sugar excipients market. The increasing use of powders/granules in various types of formulations such as tablets, capsule, and syrups in the pharmaceutical industry is the key driver for this segment.
