The neuropathic pain market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In the past few years, the neuropathic pain market size has seen robust growth. The market that was valued at $5.35 billion in 2024 is predicted to reach $5.79 billion by 2025, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%.
The amplified demand for neuropathic pain medicines, the persistent pain epidemic, increased desire for prescription therapies, and government schemes have all contributed to the historical growth period.
The neuropathic pain market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size of neuropathic pain is anticipated to witness a robust increase in the coming years, reaching a substantial value of $7.76 billion by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%.
This growth, expected in the forecasted period, can be credited to factors such as rising awareness of neuropathic pain, an expanding elderly population, an extensively developed healthcare sector, and easy accessibility to treatments for neuropathic pain. Noteworthy trend projections for this estimated period encompass enhanced diagnostic procedures, progress in pain management tactics, advancement in medical research, approvals for new drugs, and strategic initiatives.
Increasing chronic pain prevalence is set to stimulate the neuropathic pain market's expansion. Chronic pain is a persistent agony that exceeds the predicted recovery period of an ailment or injury and usually lasts at least three to six months. This rising prevalence of chronic pain, inclusive of neuropathic conditions, necessitates efficient treatments, kindling the need for research, innovation, and investment into developing better therapies for symptom relief and raising patients' quality of life. An example is from the Scottish Health Survey 2022, released by a Scottish Government department in December 2023, which revealed that over one-third (38%) of Scottish adults in 2022 experienced pain or discomfort for three months or longer, with a higher proportion among women (43%) than men (33%). Consequently, the escalating prevalence of chronic pain propels the growth of the neuropathic pain market.
