In addition to this, advanced healthcare, high sleep disorder prevalence, and adoption of innovative treatments are further increasing the insomnia market share.

Insomnia is a sleep disorder that can lower energy levels and affect the mood, health, work performance, and overall life quality of an individual. Its common causes include stress, long travels, hectic work schedules, poor sleep habits, binge eating, and excessive consumption of nicotine, caffeine, and alcohol. It can also be associated with mental health disorders, such as post-traumatic stress, and the use of drugs like antidepressants for asthma or blood pressure and over-the-counter (OTC) for pain relief, allergy, and cold. Its treatment options, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), OTC sleep aids, and prescription medications like Eszopiclone and Ramelteon, are currently available worldwide.

Insomnia Market Trends:

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic generated unprecedented changes in lives, including social isolation and innumerable work challenges and family obligations. This acts as a major stressful event that impacted the sleep patterns of millions and strengthened the market growth. Moreover, medical conditions, such as chronic pain, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, asthma, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), overactive thyroid, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease, are usually linked with insomnia. Hence, the increasing number of individuals suffering from these ailments is driving the demand for insomnia medications. Apart from this, hormonal shifts during the menstrual cycle and menopause can lead to the risk of developing insomnia, which is contributing to the market growth. In addition, as changes in sleep patterns, activity, and health and the rising use of prescription drugs can increase the chance of insomnia among older people, the growing geriatric population globally is catalyzing the demand for insomnia medical treatment. Furthermore, increasing investments in testing new treatments, interventions, and tests to prevent, detect, treat, and manage insomnia are anticipated to drive the market.
