EPINASTINE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global epinastine market size is predicted to reach USD 1.74 billion by 2033 from USD 0.74 billion in 2024, registering a CAGR of 10.1% during the forecast period.

Epinastine is a type of medicine that belongs to the class of antihistamines. Antihistamines are substances that block the action of histamine, a chemical that is released by the immune system when it detects an allergen. Histamine causes symptoms such as itching, swelling, redness, and watery eyes.

It is used to treat allergic conjunctivitis, which is an inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin layer of tissue that covers the white part of the eye and the inner surface of the eyelids. Allergic conjunctivitis can be caused by various triggers, such as pollen, dust, animal dander, or cosmetics. Epinastine works by preventing histamine from binding to its receptors in the eye, as well as stabilizing the mast cells that produce histamine and inhibiting the release of other inflammatory mediators. Epinastine is applied as eye drops and has a fast and long-lasting effect.
