Analysts’ Viewpoint

Rise in geriatric population and increase in trend of unhealthy dietary habits are key factors augmenting the Egypt cardiovascular drugs market size. Growth in obesity, diabetes, and sedentary lifestyle is leading to an increase in cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke. This is another factor fostering market progress. Furthermore, rise in age-related heart conditions, due to increase in life expectancy, is expected to fuel the cardiovascular drugs market demand in the near future.

Growth in need for related drug therapies, such as antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapies, due to the surge in cardiovascular procedures and interventional treatments is likely to boost market statistics. The Government of Egypt is striving to provide universal health coverage through more affordable and easily accessible cardiovascular medications. This is likely to offer lucrative cardiovascular drugs market opportunities to industry players.

Egypt Cardiovascular Drugs Market

Market Introduction

Any substance that is used to treat the function of the heart and blood arteries is referred to as a cardiovascular drug. Hypertension (high blood pressure), angina pectoris (chest pain caused by insufficient blood flow through coronary arteries to the heart muscle), heart failure (inadequate output of the heart muscle in relation to the needs of the rest of the body), and arrhythmias (disturbances of cardiac rhythm) are some of disorders that may be treated with such drugs.

High prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, increase in awareness about health, and rise in insurance coverage are likely to positively impact Egypt cardiovascular drugs market value during the forecast period.

Rise in Geriatric Population Driving Market Development

Aging is one of the key factors responsible for the increase in incidence of chronic diseases such as hypertension and high blood cholesterol. Egypt is the most populous country in the Middle East and the third-most populous country on the African continent. Gradual increase in both the absolute and relative numbers of older individuals in Egypt is projected to boost the demand for cardiovascular drugs in the country in the near future.

The Egyptian census is conducted every 10 years. According to the census data, the percentage of people aged 60 and above stood at 4.4% in 1976, 5.66% in 1986, 5.75% in 1996, and 6.27% in 2006. It is estimated to have reached 8.1% in 2016 and 9.2% in 2021. Furthermore, it is likely to rise to 20.8% in 2050.

Elderly population is more prone to obesity, which is a significant risk factor for hypertension and diabetes. Furthermore, inactivity and smoking are co-factors for hypercholesterolemia, a leading cause of atherosclerosis and vascular diseases. These are considered major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in Egypt. Thus, increase in cardiovascular diseases is likely to boost the Egypt cardiovascular drugs market dynamics in the near future.

Unhealthy Dietary Habits Fueling Egypt Cardiovascular Drugs Market Growth

Rise in incidence of cardiovascular diseases, especially among the youth, owing to the growth in trend of unhealthy lifestyle is bolstering market expansion in Egypt.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) pose a significant public health issue in Egypt, with notable social and economic implications in terms of healthcare demands, lost efficiency, and early death.

Decrease in cereal consumption over the last 20 years, increase in consumption of animal protein and trans fat, and low intake of omega-3 fat may be co-factors for hypercholesterolemia, a leading cause of atherosclerosis and vascular diseases.

Rise in overweight and obesity rates among Egyptians is a risk factor for hypertension. Increase in consumption of animal protein, combined with inadequate dietary intake of calcium and magnesium, is likely to contribute to early development of hypertension in Egyptians.

Increase in Risk of Heart Attacks and Strokes Fueling Demand for Antihyperlipidemic Agents

As per the Egypt cardiovascular drugs market analysis, the antihyperlipidemic agents drug class segment accounted for major share of around 25.0% in the country in 2022. Prevalence of hypercholesterolemia was estimated at 46.0% among Egyptian adults, according to a national health survey.

The risk of heart attack and stroke rises significantly with elevated cholesterol levels. This is leading to higher demand for antihyperlipidemic agents. Statins dominated the antihyperlipidemic drugs market in Egypt with more than 50% share in 2022.

High Prevalence of Hypertension

Based on indication, the hypertension segment holds the largest Egypt cardiovascular drugs market share. It is estimated to anticipated to continue its dominance during the forecast period.

High prevalence of hypertension in Egypt – it is estimated to affect over 25.0% of adults – presents a vast patient population base that requires long-term medication. Established drugs such as ACE inhibitors, calcium channel blockers, and diuretics are available at low costs. Furthermore, ongoing health initiatives are focused on improving hypertension control rate in Egypt.

According to the Egypt cardiovascular drugs market forecast, the coronary heart disease segment is anticipated to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period. Incidence of heart attacks and coronary artery diseases is rising in the country due to the growth in adoption of unhealthy lifestyle.

Increasing number of people are developing heart diseases at younger age owing to associated risk factors such as obesity, diabetes and smoking. Growth in advanced treatments involving antiplatelets, anticoagulants, and statins to prevent secondary complications is driving the coronary heart disease segment.

Improvement in diagnostic capabilities and availability of robust healthcare infrastructure are enabling coronary heart disease patients to access effective medications and management easily. This is also boosting the coronary heart disease segment in Egypt.

Analysis of Key Players in Egypt Cardiovascular Drugs Industry

The cardiovascular drugs landscape in Egypt is consolidated, with few key players accounting for major market share.

New product advancements and mergers & acquisitions are key strategies adopted by the leading players to expand their client base. AstraZeneca, Bayer AG, Novartis AG, Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Pfizer, Inc., and Sanofi are some of the companies operating in the Egypt cardiovascular drugs market.

These leading players have been summarized in the cardiovascular drugs market report based on parameters such as company overview, business strategies, financial overview, business segments, product portfolio, and recent developments.

Key Developments

  • In August 2023, Novartis released new long-term data from Phase III open-label ORION-8 trial, which is an extension of ORION-9, ORION-10, ORION-11, and ORION-3 studies. The data indicated that Leqvio, along with statin therapy, consistently reduces low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) beyond six years in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), increased risk of ASCVD, or heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH). These findings were announced during a late-breaking session at the Amsterdam 2023 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress.
  • In February 2023, Forxiga (dapagliflozin) was approved in the European Union to expand the indication for heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) to include patients with all levels of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), including HF with mildly reduced and preserved ejection fraction
  • In January 2023, AstraZeneca agreed to acquire CinCor Pharma, Inc. (CinCor), a U.S.-based clinical-stage biopharmaceutical operation that focuses on discovering innovative medicines for resistant and uncontrolled hypertension as well as chronic kidney disease. AstraZeneca's cardiorenal pipeline is expected to be strengthened by the addition of CinCor's candidate medication, Baxdrostat (CIN-107), an aldosterone synthase inhibitor (ASI) for blood pressure reduction in treatment-resistant hypertension.
