The global pharmacy automation market was valued at 5.60 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.02% from 2022 to 2030. This estimated growth makes it possible to forecast 10.4 billion USD in revenues by 2030 for this market. (1)
The three main drivers (1) of this growth are:
1. Minimization of medication error risks: 7,000 to 9,000 people die each year as a result of medication errors in the United States, and hundreds of thousands more suffer adverse reactions or other complications. The cost of these errors exceeds $40 billion annually. (2)
2. Reduction of labor costs: The automation of repetitive tasks reduces the time needed to perform these tasks and therefore the associated labor costs. It also allows pharmacy to focus their resources on higher value-added tasks.
3. Growing of the geriatric population: According to the WHO, between 2020 and 2050 the number of people aged 60 and over is expected to double. Furthermore, the number of people aged 80 and over is expected to triple over the same period. (3) This aging population will result in more medications being prescribed.
SynMed is proud to stand with Becton Dickinson, one of the leading market players, to help pharmacies keep up with this trend and to support them in their daily challenges.
