Description
Opioid Drugs Market, by Drug Type (Codeine, Fentanyl, Morphine, Hydrocodone, Oxycodone, and Others), by Application (Analgesia, Cough Suppression, and Diarrhea Suppression), by Route of Administration (Oral, Topical, Parenteral, and Others), by Distribution Channel (Hospital Pharmacies, Retail Pharmacies, and Online Pharmacies), and by Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa)
Opioids are substances that act on opioid receptors to produce morphine-like effects. Medically, they are primarily used for pain relief, including anesthesia. Other medical uses include suppression of diarrhea, replacement therapy for opioid use disorder, reversing opioid overdose, and suppressing cough. One of the first opioid drugs, ‘morphine’, was developed in 1803. Opioid drugs act on the opioid receptors present in the central and peripheral nervous systems, thus providing relief from pain. Opioids are administered in the form of oral pills, parenteral liquids, patches, or lozenges. There are different types of prescription opioids available, such as fentanyl, oxycodone, morphine, codeine, oxymorphone, and hydrocodone, which are prescribed by physicians for mainly treating pain.Market Dynamics
The key market players are focused on organic growth strategies such as product launches and approval, and this is expected to drive market growth for the forecast period. Moreover, the growing geriatric population globally is expected to increase the usage of opioids, as elderly people are at high risk of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, arthritis, and cancer due to the high comorbid conditions. Thus, the rising prevalence of old people is expected to drive market growth. In addition, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, chronic pain due to arthritis, lower back pain, fibromyalgia, and postsurgical pain is also expected to increase the usage of opioids as pain relieving agents, which is expected to drive market growth for the forecast period. For instance, as per the factsheet published by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in October 2021, about 1 in 4 U.S. adults (23.7%), or about 58.5 million people, have doctor-diagnosed arthritis, and this is expected to reach 78 million by 2045.
