The 7 major restless legs syndrome markets are expected to exhibit a CAGR of 2.49% during 2024-2034.

The restless legs syndrome market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Restless Legs Syndrome Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Restless legs syndrome refers to a neurological disorder characterized by uncomfortable sensations in the legs, leading to an irresistible urge to move them. These sensations generally range from mild to severe and can interfere with sleep as well as daily activities. In addition to the impulse to move the legs, some people might experience involuntary leg movements during sleep, known as periodic limb movements of sleep (PLMS). The symptoms of the ailment may worsen in the evening or at night and might be exacerbated by stress, anxiety, or prolonged sitting or standing. Diagnosing restless legs syndrome can be challenging since there is no single test that can definitively confirm the condition. However, a diagnosis of the disorder is typically based on a combination of medical history and clinical indications. Doctors will ask about the patient's symptoms, including the nature and frequency of leg sensations, as well as any family history of the condition. In some cases, they may recommend blood tests to check for iron deficiency, which has been associated with an increased risk of the ailment.

The rising cases of dopamine dysfunction, which causes muscle spasms and involuntary movements, are primarily driving the restless legs syndrome market. In addition to this, the increasing prevalence of various associated risk factors, such as peripheral neuropathy, iron deficiency, spinal cord disorders, sleep deprivation, excessive alcohol consumption, etc., is also bolstering the market growth. Moreover, the widespread adoption of benzodiazepines, including clonazepam and diazepam, to help improve sleep quality and provide symptom relief in patients is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Besides this, the inflating demand for anticonvulsants that aid in reducing the sensory and motor symptoms of the ailment, such as the uncomfortable sensations accompanying the condition, is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, the emerging popularity of non-pharmacological treatments, including exercise, massage, stretching, etc., since they improve circulation, reduce stress, and promote relaxation, which can all contribute to enhancing sleep quality, is augmenting the market growth. Furthermore, the escalating utilization of neuroimaging techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), to identify regions of the brain that are involved in the sensation of leg discomfort and the urge to move the legs is expected to drive the restless legs syndrome market in the coming years.
