Global Pharmacovigilance Market Size is valued at USD 7.8 Bn in 2024 and is predicted to reach USD 15.3 Bn by the year 2034 at a 7.1% CAGR during the forecast period for 2025-2034.
Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:
The pharmacovigilance market refers to the global industry of monitoring and assessing the safety and efficacy of drugs and medical products after being approved. The market includes various services and solutions, such as adverse event reporting, signal detection, risk management, regulatory compliance, and post-market surveillance.
In recent years, the pharmacovigilance market has experienced substantial growth due to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, rising demand for personalized medicines, and growing regulatory requirements for drug safety. Advancements also drive the market in healthcare technologies, such as artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and blockchain, which have enhanced the efficiency and accuracy of pharmacovigilance processes.
Despite the increasing focus on drug safety, there is still a lack of awareness about pharmacovigilance among healthcare professionals and the general public. This could result in underreporting adverse drug reactions and delays in detecting safety signals.
The pharmacovigilance market is segmented based on the service provider, product life cycle, type, process flow, therapeutic area, and end-use. Based on the service provider, the market is segmented as in-house and contract outsourcing. Based on the product life cycle, the market is segmented into pre-clinical, phase I, phase II, phase III and phase IV. Based on type, the market is segmented into spontaneous reporting, intensified ADR reporting, targeted spontaneous reporting, cohort event monitoring and EHR mining.
Based on process flow, the market is segmented into case data management, case logging, case data analysis, medical reviewing & reporting signal detection, adverse event logging, adverse event analysis, adverse event review & reporting, risk management system, risk evaluation system and risk mitigation system. Based on therapeutic areas, the market is segmented into oncology, neurology, cardiology, and respiratory systems. Based on end-use, the market is segmented into pharmaceuticals, biotechnology companies, medical device manufacturers and others.
Contract outsourcing is one of the dominant segments in the pharmacovigilance market, and it is anticipated to continue dominating the demand in the coming years. Contract outsourcing involves outsourcing pharmacovigilance services to third-party service providers, such as contract research organizations (CROs) and business process outsourcing (BPO) companies. Factors such as cost-effectiveness, improved efficiency, and access to specialized expertise drive the contract outsourcing segment. Outsourcing pharmacovigilance services enables pharmaceutical companies to focus on their core competencies while leveraging the expertise of specialized service providers to manage the complexities of drug safety.
Moreover, outsourcing pharmacovigilance services helps companies to reduce costs associated with hiring and training personnel, managing infrastructure, and maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements. This has led to an increasing trend of outsourcing pharmacovigilance services to third-party service providers, especially among small and mid-sized pharmaceutical companies.
Spontaneous reporting is an essential component of pharmacovigilance, and it is expected to continue dominating the pharmacovigilance market in the coming years. The spontaneous reporting segment is driven by various factors, such as the widespread use of drugs and medical products, increasing awareness about drug safety, and the need for early detection and management of ADRs. Spontaneous reporting plays a crucial role in identifying and assessing the safety of drugs and medical products after being approved.
The Asia-Pacific pharmacovigilance market is expected to register the highest market share in revenue shortly. The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to dominate the pharmacovigilance market in the coming years. The region is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate due to various factors, such as the increasing demand for pharmaceuticals, rising prevalence of chronic diseases, growing regulatory requirements, and rising awareness about drug safety and adverse effects.
Countries like China and India have been experiencing significant growth in their pharmaceutical industries, leading to increased demand for pharmacovigilance services. Moreover, the growing emphasis on patient safety and the need for regulatory compliance has further boosted the demand for pharmacovigilance solutions in the region. Besides, North America is currently the largest market for pharmacovigilance and is anticipated to continue dominating the market in the coming years. Various factors, including many pharmaceutical companies, advanced healthcare infrastructure, and increasing demand for personalized medicine, drive the North American pharmacovigilance market. The region has stringent regulatory requirements for drug safety, leading to the establishment of a well-developed pharmacovigilance infrastructure.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies
The contributors who typically take part in such a course include, but are not limited to:
Data Modeling and Analysis:
In the iterative process (mentioned above), data models received inputs from primary as well as secondary sources. But analysts working on these models were the key. They used their extensive knowledge and experience about industry and topic to make changes and fine-tuning these models as per the product/service under study.
The standard data models used while studying this market were the top-down and bottom-up approaches and the company shares analysis model. However, other methods were also used along with these – which were specific to the industry and product/service under study.
