In South Africa, the local Allergy Care market is expected to grow more strongly, with an expected CAGR of 8.0%, for the 2024 to 2028 forecast period. Furthermore, the local Allergy Care market has experienced exceptional growth in recent years, having achieved a CAGR of 10.1% between 2018 and 2023.

Globally, allergy care nasal spray products have become increasingly popular amongst consumers, due to their ease of use, portability, and efficacy in treating various seasonal allergy conditions. With this, many global market players have introduced new products to meet the increasing demand for the nasal spray format.

For example, Nuance Pharma introduced its Bentrio Nasal Spray into the Asia-Pacific region. This product is a drug-free nasal spray designed to protect users against airborne disease-causing agents, which include allergens and viruses, as well as to protect against allergic rhinitis and alleviate allergic symptoms.

Moreover, ARS Pharma recently announced that the company had produced a new epinephrine nasal spray, ‘Neffy’, which is designed as a needle-free alternative to an EpiPen, to treat anaphylaxis. In addition, Bausch Health Companies Incorporated recently launched its Ryaltris nasal care product to treat allergic rhinitis and associated ocular symptoms in adults, adolescents, and children.

Interestingly, the new Lumimed nasal device, a handheld device that utilises red light to offer relief to those suffering from hay fever, could be introduced into the United Kingdom (UK) and United States (US) markets in 2024.

This new product is positioned as a drug-free alternative to traditional allergy treatments and uses phototherapy to reduce allergen-induced histamines in the cells that line the nasal cavity, particularly mast cells, whilst reducing inflammation of the mucus membranes.

Similarly, the South African market is also experiencing an influx of convenience-focused allergy care products, specifically in a nasal spray format. As an illustration, Salex announced the launch of its new Salex® QD Nasal Spray/Rinse, which is formulated with four unique active ingredients, namely saline, surfactant, xylitol, and sorbitol, and is available in variants for both adults and children, each having a unique nozzle that is spray or force-controlled and features an ergonomic tip and angle.

Furthermore, iliadin announced an expansion of its metered nasal spray range, with its new Aloe Metered Nasal Spray designed to relieve a blocked nose and provide a comfortable breathing experience, with aromas of Aloe, Eucalyptus, and Menthol. The product is also indicated to offer fast relief for blocked nose stuffiness for up to 12 hours.

This trend also extends to child-focused allergy care, with many players promoting child-focused allergy treatments. For example, Adcock Ingram’s Allergy Care brand, Bionase, promoted its paediatric Kids Nasal Spray, which offers relief for sinus congestion, hay fever, and postnasal drip.
