Modern human insulin accounted for the largest share -84%- of global human insulin market. Premixed modern human insulin and long acting human insulin are estimated to grow at a brisk pace over the next five years. The high growth in these segments can be attributed to the growing demand of Apidra, Lantus, and Levemir.

New technologies such as safety pen needles and infusion pumps have emerged as efficient mode of delivery for human insulin. Pen needles offer significant benefits to the healthcare sector. The usage of easy to fit needles is rising due to the convenience offered by them. These needles are easy to attach, remove, and dispose, thus they can be easily used by patients with manual dexterity problems, and visual impairment. Diabetes educators and clinicians across the world recommend the usage of needles with shorter lengths and higher gauge sizes for convenience and to minimize pain. Owing to these factors, technological advancement is expected to be a major revenue pocket for the human insulin market in the coming years.
