Cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies in Iraq records strong value growth in 2026, supported by rising prices, growing preventive health behaviours and continued demand for products that help consumers manage seasonal illnesses and allergies. Antihistamines/allergy remedies (systemic) is the best performing category, reflecting the increasing impact of seasonal allergies and climate-related health concerns. Competition intensifies as new products and importers enter the market, while local and regional manufacturers strengthen their positions. Established products such as Prospan benefit from strong consumer trust, while newer entrants such as Doppelherz aktiv Ivypect expand consumer choice and contribute to market fragmentation. Convenience increasingly influences purchasing decisions, supporting strong growth in combination products and sachet-based formats. Looking ahead, climate instability, frequent sandstorms, population growth and changing lifestyles are expected to sustain demand for cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies through to 2031.
