As per statistics of the Asian Development Bank, the population of individuals above the age of 60 years in Asia is projected to touch 923 million by 2050. The elderly population that is more susceptible to gastroesophageal reflux diseases (GERD) and peptic ulcers is anticipated to account for significant demand for antacids in the region. The intake of medication for other medical conditions, which are associated with acid reflux and excess acid production, also account for significant demand for antacids among this population. Further, as per statistics by the World Bank, Japan recorded the highest proportion of geriatric population in 2014; 25% population was above the age of 65 years and above in the same year. This is acting in favor of the growth of Asia Pacific antacids market.

Apart from this, the increasing incidence of heartburn, acidity, and gastro esophageal reflux diseases, and changing lifestyle are stoking growth of the worldwide market for antacids. For instance, according to a study published in Gut (BMJ journal), the prevalence of GERD in Europe ranges from 8.8% - 25.9%. Countries in Northern Europe account for a high prevalence of gastro intestinal and gastro esophageal diseases over countries in Southern Europe.
Self-medication is a common practice for occasional heartburn and acidity and the easy availability of antacids over the counter is also having a positive influence on the market's growth.
