In medical parlance, asthma is defined as a respiratory condition wherein, the airways through which a body breathes becomes inflamed and constricted due to one or more environmental triggers. This condition is considered to be a serious disorder in a human body and over 300 million people suffer from asthma in the world. Asthma is often treated with drug therapy and by avoiding any type of triggers. The total drug market for asthma is worth over $15 billion.

For several decades, pharmaceutical companies have created more effective asthma products and faster acting drugs to treat asthma. The latest generation of asthma drugs such as GlaxoSmithKline's Advair and AstraZeneca's Symbicort are now poised to take over the older products in the market. GlaxoSmithKline, AstraZeneca and Merck will continue to be the market leaders until their patents expire in the forthcoming years. However, Symbicort, Advair and Singulair would still remain to be the leading drugs of the global asthma and COPD market for the forecast period 2010 – 2017. Advair was seen as the market leader to treat asthma with USD 7,802 million in 2011, followed by Singulair which was the second largest drug in terms of revenue at UD 5479 million in 2011.

Also, due to the rising demand of new entrants in combinational therapies, beta-agonists, and inhaled corticosteroids, the extreme competition in the asthma market is becoming popular and intense now-a-days. The opportunities are growing in the asthma and COPD market as huge companies are focusing on contract manufacturing outsourcing (CMO) and key market players are involved into developing new products to treat asthma better.
