North America remains the dominant region in the global compounding pharmacies market and is estimated to hold 37.3% of the market share in 2024 due to strong industry presence and demand for compounded medications. Compounding pharmacies have proliferated across major markets like California, Texas, Florida and New York, catering to the personalized healthcare needs of patients. Strong reimbursement structure for compounded drugs under the Section 503A of the FDA has supported the growth of these pharmacies in the region. Moreover, the export of compounded medicines from the U.S. to international markets has further boosted revenues. However, regulatory changes can hamper the market growth.

Asia Pacific region is emerging as the fastest growing market for compounding pharmacies globally. Countries like India, China, Japan and Australia are witnessing huge demand particularly for veterinary and pediatric compounds. Rapidly aging populations and rising affluence in these nations have increased healthcare spending on specialty medications. Export hubs in India and China are leveraging their low-cost manufacturing advantages to cater to international customers. The region also benefits from favorable import policies and price parity for compounded drugs as compared to branded products. While regulatory frameworks need strengthening and quality standards adoption is variable, APAC's healthcare industry maturity and evolving policies will support the compounding pharmacies sector over the long term.
