Epilepsy Market Size and Forecasts (2020 - 2030), Global and Regional Share, Trend, and Growth Opportunity Analysis Report Coverage: By Type (Progressive Myoclonic Epilepsy, Reflex Epilepsy, Generalized Epilepsy, and Other), Route of Administration (Oral, Parenteral, and Others), Treatment Type (First-Generation Drugs, Second-Generation Drugs, and Third-Generation Drugs), Age Group (Adults and Children), Distribution Channel (Hospital Pharmacies, Retail Pharmacies, and Others), and Geography (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America)

The epilepsy market size is expected to grow from US$ 7.7 billion in 2022 to US$ 10.7 billion by 2030; it is projected to register a CAGR of 4.1% during 2022-2030.

Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic neurological disorders across the world. Associated with an abnormal electrical activity in the brain, this disorder affects over 1 million American women of childbearing age. The rising prevalence of epilepsy and increasing investments in the development of epilepsy therapies are noteworthy factors contributing to the expansion of the epilepsy market size. The administration of anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) is usually referred to as the first-line treatment for epilepsy. Approximately 80% of the people suffering from epilepsy are from developing countries. In children as well as adults, the treatment of epilepsy is mostly based on the use of drugs (either in monotherapy or combined therapy), while the remaining treatment approaches, such as surgery, neuromodulation, and ketogenic diet, are used at a lesser frequency. However, the recall of products hinders the epilepsy market growth.

Age Group-Based Insights

Based on age group, the epilepsy market is segmented into adults and children. The adults segment held a larger epilepsy market share in 2022. It is further expected to register a higher CAGR in the market during 2022–2030. Epilepsy is more likely to develop in adults as some risk factors for this disease are more common in adults; these include diseases affecting brain function (such as Alzheimer’s disease), brain tumors, strokes, and head injuries. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 3 million adults aged 18 or older are living with active epilepsy in the US. Nearly 1 million of these adults are aged 55 or older. As the population ages, even more older people are likely to suffer from epilepsy in the coming years. In 2021, 1.1% of US adults (~2.86 million adults) reported active epilepsy. Thus, medications and treatment strategies often prioritize adult patients, aligning with the demographic prevalence of epilepsy in this age group.

End User-Based Insights

Based on distribution channel, the epilepsy market is segmented into hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and others. The hospital pharmacies segment held the largest epilepsy market share in 2022. In addition, the retail pharmacies segment is expected to register the highest CAGR in the market during 2022–2030. Retail pharmacy stores sell prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs, and some fast-moving consumer goods, along with providing related services. Modern retail pharmacy chains are digitized, organized, and tech-enabled, which allows them to track medication inventories and sell 100% reliable goods. In addition, retail pharmacy chains provide value-added services for consumers opting for medical claims or insurance filings. They can also be requested to refurbish previous bills or memos. Moreover, their locations make them accessible for patients to fill their prescriptions and receive counseling from pharmacists.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and Neurological Health Charities Canada are among the primary and secondary sources referred to while preparing the epilepsy market report.
