Pharmaceutical Dissolution Testing Services Market To Reach $966.3 Million By 2033

Pharmaceutical Dissolution Testing Services Market Growth & Trends

The global pharmaceutical dissolution testing services market size is estimated to reach USD 966.3 million by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 8.98% from 2025 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to increase primarily as a result of the rising drug development process, increasing technological advancements, rising awareness about the need for high-quality products, and the production of numerous medications for various chronic diseases that require dissolution testing. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the global industry. Pharmaceutical firms, biotech firms, and other end-user demands were primarily served during the crisis by developing coronavirus prevention drugs.

Since the end of 2019, these organizations have been actively working toward the development of medications that can be used as a treatment for COVID-19 patients who have only minor symptoms. And these drug developments require dissolution testing at each stage to access safety, stability, and efficacy, thus contributing to industry growth. For the physical assessment of solid dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules, ointments, and creams, dissolution testing is required. The simplest type of testing measures the solubility or rate of dissolving a medication tablet. Dissolution testing can be performed to assess the release rates of a drug material under various situations and to provide details regarding the effectiveness of in vivo performance in Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, And Excretion (ADME) and bioavailability studies.

Dissolution testing provides information on how quickly or slowly certain drugs are absorbed into various body parts and, subsequently, how much they dissolve after administration. This enables businesses to assess whether a drug will function effectively after it enters a patient's system and whether any negative effects brought on by slower absorption rates would occur. Pharmaceutical dissolution testing requires specialized staff to run the assays and prepare regulatory filings. This factor has greatly increased the demand for professional teams to handle pharmaceutical dissolution testing, which is predicted to have a favorable effect on the industry.
