Rising Awareness about Availability of Opioids to Fuel Market Growth

Stats by American Academy of Pain Medicine show that in 2013, around 100 million people in the US suffered from opioid induced constipation. The experts also stated that, this figure is likely to rise with the increasing number of people consuming opioids in the form of recreational drugs. Owing to an increasing awareness about availability of a wide range of opioid medicines, people have started utilizing them as long-term treatment for severe pains. This number of opioid consuming people is increasing globally, especially in North America, fueling the demand in opioid induced constipation treatment market.

However, the OIC treatment firms are anticipated to face a competition from standard laxative manufacturing firms. Several healthcare firms still prefer conventional laxatives to treat OIC. This is foreseen to restrict market’s growth to some extent. However, with the advent of pipeline drugs and their approval, the opioid induced constipation treatment market is foreseen to grow by leaps and bounds in coming years.

North America Consumption of OIC Treatment Trumps Other Regions

North America has always taken up a large chunk of the global consumption of opioid induced constipation treatment drugs. By the end of 2023, North America alone is expected to generate US$4.05 bn of the global revenue from opioid induced constipation treatments. This region also leads in terms of growth rate of demand, owing to the large percentage of population that consumes opioid drugs and suffers from OIC. This comes from a high number of patients that are suffering from chronic diseases and are resorting to opioids.

Additionally, the penetration of opioid induced constipation treatments is very low in other regions as compared to North America. This could be the reason for the high disparity of consumption rates between regions. At the moment, North America dominates in terms of opioid consumption. According to the ASIPP, the U.S. alone consumes close to 80% of the global supply of opioids.
