The global remdesivir market is expected to grow from $1.98 billion in 2020 to $2.55 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 28.8%.

The high cost associated with the drug is a key factor hampering the growth of the market.

There are various speculations on the pricing of the drug. According to the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER), the estimated price of Remdesivir would be between $4,580 to $5,080.
