Pet Dewormers Market Growth & Trends:
The global pet dewormers market size is expected to reach USD 3.98 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 8.61% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Some key factors driving the market growth are awareness and education efforts regarding parasitic worms, the growing importance of parasite control in pets, the emergence of new parasitic worms, and growing R&D initiatives. Studies show a high prevalence of parasites in pets across the U.S., EU, and UK, with parasitic worms and vector-borne diseases (VBDs) like Lyme disease and heartworm spreading to new areas. Parasites such as ticks, fleas, and leishmania can transmit diseases to humans, correlating with pet infection rates. For instance, leishmaniosis has significant fatality rates in Brazil, and flea infestations can persist for months without intervention.
Furthermore, low compliance rates among pet owners globally highlight untapped market potential for deworming products. In the Netherlands, UK, and Portugal, only 5-16% of pets follow recommended deworming practices, signaling a need for increased education and product adoption. Regional veterinary councils (CAPC, ESCCAP, TROCCAP) play a crucial role in setting guidelines and promoting effective parasite control.
The growing prevalence of parasitic diseases and, subsequently, the rise in the importance of parasitic control in pets is expected to drive market growth rapidly. Parasites such as fleas, ticks, mites, and worms pose lifelong risks to pets, causing discomfort, disease, and potential transmission of zoonotic illnesses to humans, especially vulnerable populations like children, the elderly, or immunocompromised individuals. Global factors like rising pet populations, climate change, and increased mobility are expanding parasite prevalence and geographic spread, necessitating effective control measures. For instance, according to the May 2024 article by Animal Friend Life reported that weather conditions in Australia have led to a rise in roundworm infections among dogs as well as humans. Spread of parasitic worms like Toxocara roundworms has affected around two million Australians. Many pet owners, i.e., around 25%, have admitted to never deworming their dogs. Experts have recommended regular deworming, prompt disposal of pet feces, and avoiding raw meat diets for pets to tackle this situation in its early stages.
Pet Dewormers Market Report Highlights:
- The dogs segment held a significant share of 37.84% in 2024, and the cats segment had the fastest CAGR over the forecast period of 2025-2030. This can be attributed to higher ownership rates and susceptibility to parasites like heartworms and ticks requiring regular preventive care. For instance, U.S. studies show that 21% of shelter dogs test positive for Giardia, highlighting the critical need for deworming products.
- Based on the route of administration, the oral segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR of 9.61% over the forecast period. Oral pet dewormers dominate the market due to their ease of administration, high efficacy, and ability to target a wide range of parasites, including roundworms and tapeworms. Their convenience and pet-friendly formulations drive compliance among pet owners, significantly boosting market growth by meeting diverse consumer needs.
- Based on type, the prescription segment held the largest share in 2024 and the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. This can be attributed to their targeted efficacy against specific parasitic infections, ensuring higher safety and effectiveness. Veterinarians' endorsement and customized pet treatment plans further drive the demand for prescription-based dewormers.
- By distribution channel, the Veterinary Hospitals/Clinics segment dominated the market in 2024 owing to their role in providing expert consultations, accurate diagnoses, and tailored deworming treatments. In addition, the presence of trained professionals ensures proper usage and monitoring of dewormers, leading to higher adoption rates.
- North America market held the largest share of 35.36% globally in 2024. The dominance can be attributed to high pet ownership rates, increased awareness of pet health, and a strong demand for preventative care. In addition, advanced veterinary healthcare infrastructure and a well-established regulatory framework further contribute to the region's market leadership.
