Executive Summary
According to a new report titled, “Opioids Market by Product Type and Application: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2030,” the opioids market size was valued at $4,412.4 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $6,060.1 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 3.2% from 2021 to 2030.Opioids are pain relievers as they include substances that relax muscles and ease pain and stress. The opioid is a prescription drug and known by names such as Actiq, Duragesic, and Sublimaze. Prescription opioids are primarily used to treat moderate to severe pain, while some opioids can be used to alleviate coughing and diarrhea. Hydrocodone, oxycodone, codeine, fentanyl, methadone, morphine, and other pharmaceutical opioids are among them. Opioids are used to decrease pain by increasing the threshold for pain. These analgesics are used to treat severe continuous pain in individuals with terminal conditions and to manage pain in cancer patients.
The growth of the opioid market is majorly driven by surge in consumption of opioid drugs to combat pain and rise in geriatric population that are more prone to orthopedic pain. In addition, upsurge in disposable income in developing economies such as India, China, and others contribute to the growth of the market. However, surge in opioid addiction (opioid crisis) across the globe and implementation of stringent government regulation for opioid prescription are the factors anticipated to hamper the market growth. In addition, increase in death rates owing to the overdose of these drugs is a major factor restraining the market growth. For instance, according to the National Institute of Drug Abuse, more than 130 people in the U.S. die daily because of overdosing of opioids.
By product type, the methadone segment was the major revenue contributor in 2020, and is anticipated to continue this trend during the forecast period, owing to increase in intake of opioids across the globe for pain management. On the other side, the demand for fentanyl is projected to exhibit the fastest opioids market growth during the forecast period, owing to rise in use of fentanyl for the treatment of severe pain after surgeries.
By application, the pain management segment presently dominates the opioids market, and is expected to remain dominant during the forecast period. This segment is expected to exhibit a prominent growth rate, owing to rapid increase in number of patients suffering from chronic headaches, migraine, and backaches across the world, which has considerably boosted the need for opioids across the globe, thereby augmenting the growth of the market.
North America accounted for more than 45.23% of the global opioids market share in 2020, and is expected to remain dominant throughout the forecast period. This was attributed to increase in demand for opioids drugs, rise in number of healthcare expenditure, and increase in the number of surgeries. Asia-Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period, owing to increase in incidence of population suffering from various diseases such as migraine, arthritis and cancer pain disease and rise in ageing population. In addition, increase in healthcare expenditure offers a lucrative opportunity for the market growth.
