The elderly population is highly susceptible to muscle pain; consequently, the aging population is the primary market driver. Additionally, the increase in surgical procedures has bolstered the market. The rising incidence of chronic back problems and the increase in the number of back surgeries are major factors propelling the growth of the market. In addition, the increasing prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders and growing consumer awareness of their management and treatment are anticipated to be the driving forces behind the expansion of the market.
Muscle relaxant medications treat muscle tension, spasm, and hyperreflexia. On the market, there are two categories of muscle relaxants which are centrally acting muscle relaxants and directly acting muscle relaxants. Neuromuscular blocking compounds are also known as direct-acting muscle relaxants. These have no activity in the central nervous system and interfere with neuronal transmission at the neuromuscular junction end plate.
One of the most prevalent chronic illnesses in Canada is back pain. Back pain affects four out of five people at some point. However, it often strikes people between the ages of 30 and 50. Men and women have back issues on an equal basis. However, the reason for back pain is not always apparent; in 85% to 90% of people with back pain, no particular cause can be found. As a result, many people with neck or back discomfort will resort to muscle relaxants for relief or as a form of treatment, helping the market in North America to grow.
