Cold and flu supplements refer to drugs usually sold as over-the-counter (OTC) medicines in local stores and pharmacies without a prescription. They generally contain antihistamines, cough suppressants, decongestants, and pain relievers. They are typically consumed to boost the immune system and prevent diseases like the cold and flu. Some commonly available supplements include vitamins, minerals, and numerous herbal extracts. For instance, Echinacea is used as an immune system stimulant that aids in the prevention and treatment of colds, whereas elderberry is commonly utilized for treating flu as it possesses antioxidant and immune-modulating properties. Besides this, Panax ginseng and Panax quinquefolium have proven effective in upper respiratory tract infections. On the other hand, zinc supplements are associated with preventing and treating the common cold, as zinc inhibits the replication of the cold virus. Owing to these benefits, cold and flu supplements are gaining immense traction across the globe.

Cold and Flu Supplements Market Trends:
The rising consumption of supplements to strengthen the immune system and prevent diseases, such as the cold and flu, represents the primary factor driving the market growth. Moreover, consumers are increasingly spending on products and supplements with natural immunity-boosting claims due to the growing health consciousness among the masses and the widespread prevalence of seasonal diseases. Along with this, there is a rise in the demand for health products containing herbal extracts, such as ginger, Echinacea, garlic, elderberry, turmeric, and ginkgo, as they help the body fight viruses. For instance, garlic assists in reducing the risk of becoming sick and decreasing the duration of the illness. This, coupled with the surging popularity of ginger, which is medically proven effective in treating sore throats as it contains bioactive compounds with anti-inflammatory properties, has catalyzed the product demand. Furthermore, the increasing consumer preferences for natural and herbal products over modern medications due to their fewer side effects and low toxicity has propelled market growth. In addition, the escalating demand for preventive medicines, such as cold and flu supplements, owing to the rising consumer awareness regarding the benefits of several natural ingredients, is creating a positive outlook for the market. Other major factors contributing to the market growth include the aging population, inflating consumer healthcare expenditure, easy product availability via online and offline channels, and increasing government support for free flu immunization.
