Human immunoglobulin (Ig) or intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a blood product manufactured from pooled human plasma collected from thousands of healthy donors. It contains antibodies that help fight infection and treat some autoimmune disorders in patients who cannot produce sufficient antibodies themselves. The expanding patient population suffering from various immunodeficiencies has tremendously driven the demand for intravenous immunoglobulin in recent years.

The global Human Immunoglobulin (pH4) for Intravenous Injection Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 2,055.76 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 16% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market Opportunity:
The rising demand for treatment of primary immunodeficiencies presents a major growth opportunity for players in the human immunoglobulin (pH4) for intravenous injection market. Primary immunodeficiencies refer to a group of more than 350 rare, chronic disorders caused due to problems with the immune system. These disorders increase the susceptibility of patients to infections and make them more vulnerable to diseases. According to the World Health Organization, primary immunodeficiencies affect approximately 1 in 10,000-12,000 people worldwide. Regular IVIG therapy helps these patients gain protection against pathogens and improves their quality of life significantly. With growing diagnosis rates and availability of treatment options, the market for IVIG is expected to witness high demand from this patient segment over the forecast period.
