The growth in the demand for veterinary drugs has thus triggered a corresponding increase in the demand for excipients. For example, according to Health for Animals, a member organization of the Global National Health Association, an estimated 20% of preventable diseases significantly cause animal deaths, posing a challenge to farmers, veterinarians, and medicine suppliers. Therefore, the growing focus on disease treatment and prevention has boosted demand for successful drugs, thus propelling the demand for excipients in formulation. This trend is expected to drive considerable market growth as pharmaceuticals focus on efficacy and innovation in the next few years.

Veterinary excipients are an additive employed in combination with veterinary active pharmaceutical ingredients  to improve stability, solubility, and bioavailability, and enable drug delivery. They may function as carriers, diluents, binders, or disintegrants, ensuring proper formulation and administration of veterinary drugs for animal health management.
