The Neurology Market was valued at USD 67.3 Billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 94.8 Billion by 2029, rising at a CAGR of 7.10%. The neurology sector is dynamic and offers providers a wealth of opportunities for expansion.

The demand for medications to treat neurological diseases like Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis (MS) and Alzheimer’s is expected to rise as their prevalence increases. Due to the availability of better healthcare infrastructure and the rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases, the market for neurological drugs is anticipated to grow at a rapid pace in unexplored emerging markets, including Asia-pacific countries. Additionally, the growing demand for better healthcare services and large government investments in healthcare infrastructure are driving the rapid development of the healthcare sector in emerging economies.

In 2023, the multiple sclerosis market segment held the largest share among disease indication segments. The market has grown significantly in recent years due to improvements in the creation of more potent treatment alternatives. Pharmaceutical companies are spending large sums of money on R&D in an effort to develop a new treatment that will either improve disease management or slow its progression. New technologies like telemedicine and personalized medicine are also making it simpler for patients to get timely, individualized care. The need for treatment solutions has increased as a result of growing patient numbers and increased awareness of MS. The psychotic segment held the second-highest share and generated $14.3 billion in revenue in 2023. Throughout the forecast period, it is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5%.

The segment pertaining to brain tumor diseases is anticipated to expand at the fastest rate (12.6%). The rising incidence of brain cancer worldwide, improvements in drug delivery to the brain via cell-mediated drug transport and nanotechnology, high healthcare costs, diagnostic technology advances, clinical trials and the creation of predictive markers for drug response are all factors contributing to the growth.
