Europe Glucose Monitoring Devices Market - Industry Analysis and Market Forecast (2016 - 2021)

Europe’s glucose monitoring device market is forecasted to reach USD 5.78 billion by 2021 at a CAGR of 9.44 %.

Europe’s Glucose Monitoring Devices Market- Market Dynamics

The direct and indirect costs of diabetes care are increasing with the rise in the prevalence of various complications due to the disease. In the European Union, about £93 billion were lost due to these direct and indirect costs linked to diabetes. This increased spending is putting pressure on governments to take the steps essential to keep the disease in check and avoid complications in order to ensure that these losses are kept to a minimum. This is expected to help boost the sales of blood glucose meters, as keeping a check on blood glucose will help patients in managing their diabetes, thereby reducing the risk of developing complications.
