Definition:
Bronchodilator drugs help to dilate the airways, thus making air flow easier. They are mainly used in the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Bronchodilators may be applied in an acute therapy, leading to a fast and short-term relief of symptoms. Other types of bronchodilators are used for maintenance therapy in long-term treatment. Different categories of bronchodilators include beta two adrenergic agonists, anticholingergics, and theophylline.

Bronchodilator drugs are used to treat respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and bronchitis. In Fiji, the market for bronchodilator drugs has been growing steadily in recent years.
Customer preferences: Patients in Fiji prefer bronchodilator drugs that are affordable and effective. There is a high demand for generic drugs as they are more affordable than branded drugs. Patients also prefer drugs that provide quick relief from respiratory symptoms.
Trends in the market: The market for bronchodilator drugs in Fiji has been growing due to the increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases. The rise in air pollution levels, smoking, and changing lifestyles have contributed to the increasing incidence of respiratory diseases. As a result, there is a growing demand for bronchodilator drugs in Fiji.
Local special circumstances: Fiji is a small island nation in the South Pacific with a population of around 900,000. The healthcare system in Fiji is underdeveloped, and there is a shortage of healthcare professionals. This has led to a lack of awareness about respiratory diseases and their treatment. The government has taken steps to improve the healthcare system, but more needs to be done to increase awareness about respiratory diseases and their treatment.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: Fiji's economy is heavily dependent on tourism, which has been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has also led to a shortage of medical supplies, including bronchodilator drugs. The government has taken steps to address this issue, but the supply chain for medical supplies remains disrupted. The economic slowdown has also led to a decrease in disposable income, which has affected the demand for bronchodilator drugs. However, the government's efforts to improve the healthcare system and increase awareness about respiratory diseases are expected to drive the growth of the bronchodilator drugs market in Fiji in the long term.
