PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Analgesics will enjoy continued growth throughout the forecast period
Analgesics is projected to register ongoing growth over the forecast period, largely due to increasing reliance on OTC pain relief for everyday ailments such as headaches and muscle pain. The trend toward greater self-care and self-medication, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic, has further bolstered demand for accessible pain relief options.
E-commerce will become a more significant distribution channel
E-commerce is becoming increasingly significant for sales of analgesics in Ireland. More local consumers are choosing to purchase pain relief products online because it is convenient, offers privacy, and provides a wider selection.
Holistic health will remain an ongoing trend in the coming years
Irish consumers are increasingly health-aware, paying close attention to product ingredients and favouring items they consider to be “clean” or “natural.” This shift is driving the popularity of herbal and plant-based pain relief options as well as CBD-infused products, although strict regulations still limit the latter.
