PORTLAND, OREGON, UNITED STATES, June 23, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- According to the report, the global analgesics industry was estimated at $26.7 billion in 2020, and is anticipated to hit $50.7 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.6% from 2021 to 2030. The study analyzes the important strategies, drivers, competition, market dynamics, size, and important investment regions.

Key Takeaways:

Market Growth: The analgesics market has experienced steady growth over the years due to the high prevalence of acute and chronic pain conditions, such as arthritis, musculoskeletal disorders, post-operative pain, and cancer-related pain. The increasing aging population and rising incidences of injuries and surgeries have also contributed to market growth.

Types of Analgesics: The market encompasses various types of analgesics, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, local anesthetics, and other over-the-counter (OTC) pain relievers. NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen and aspirin, are widely used for mild to moderate pain, while opioids like morphine and oxycodone are prescribed for severe pain.

OTC Segment: Over-the-counter analgesics, available without a prescription, play a significant role in the market. These include common pain relievers like acetaminophen (paracetamol) and non-prescription NSAIDs. The OTC segment provides convenience to consumers for managing mild pain and has a large consumer base.

Increasing Demand for Non-Opioid Alternatives: With concerns about the opioid epidemic and the addictive nature of opioids, there has been a growing emphasis on developing and promoting non-opioid alternatives for pain management. This has led to increased research and development efforts to discover new non-opioid analgesics or improve existing non-opioid options.

Technological Advancements: The analgesics market has witnessed technological advancements aimed at enhancing drug delivery systems, improving pain management efficacy, and reducing side effects. These advancements include the development of extended-release formulations, transdermal patches, topical gels, and novel drug delivery methods like nanotechnology and targeted therapies.
