The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially impacted the Middle East and Africa Insulin Pens Market. Type-1 diabetes patients are impacted more during Covid-19. People with diabetes are having a weak immune system so, with COVID-19, the immune system gets weaker very fast. People with diabetes will have more chances to get into serious complications rather than normal people. The manufacturers of Insulin delivery devices have taken care during COVID-19 to deliver insulin devices to diabetes patients with the help of local governments. Novo Nordisk stated on their website that 'Since the start of COVID-19, our commitment to patients, our employees and the communities where we operate has remained unchanged, we continue to supply our medicines and devices to people living with diabetes and other serious chronic diseases, safeguard the health of our employees, and take actions to support doctors and nurses as they work to defeat COVID-19.' Doctors around the world suggested diabetes patients should check their diabetes levels more often to be careful and maintain normal blood glucose levels, which led to an increase in the usage of insulin pens.
Insulin cartridges in reusable pens are an upgraded version of insulin vials. Most types of insulins are manufactured in the form of cartridges, making them easily accessible. These devices have all the functional benefits of reusable pens and are cost-effective, as these cartridges are less expensive compared to disposable insulin pens in the long run. Due to the increasing demand for insulin cartridges, most insulin device manufacturing companies have produced reusable insulin pens that are compatible with various insulin manufacturers' cartridges. These insulin cartridges are considered more consumer-friendly, as they are smaller and less noticeable than the classic vial-and-syringe. These devices are also more portable for consumers on the go. Cartridges that are open do not need to be refrigerated, making storage very easy for consumers.
Technological advancements have increased over the period in Insulin delivery devices for safer and more accurate administration of insulin. Therefore, owing to the aforementioned factors the studied market is anticipated to witness growth over the analysis period.
