Epilepsy is one of the world's most common neurological diseases. Patients suffering from this disease experience abrupt behavioral changes, severe emotional distress, and loss of consciousness. More than 50 million people have epilepsy globally. This disease is a common severe brain disorder caused by a variety of factors that result in epileptic seizures. These drugs work by reducing the occurrence of abnormal and excessive electrical discharges in the brain, which leads to seizures. The rising prevalence of epilepsy places a significant economic burden on the world's healthcare systems. The market is expected to grow due to the high prevalence rate and growing demand for treatment options for this disorder.

Driving Factors

Product approvals for epileptic disorders will drive market growth during the forecast period. Despite the availability of AEDs on the market, drug intolerance affects one-third of the population. Manufacturers are making numerous efforts to mitigate this issue. R&D personnel are now concentrating on developing target-specific drugs for the disease's neurobiology. The rising prevalence of epilepsy, which requires therapeutically effective medications, puts market players under pressure to introduce AEDs. Moreover, government support and investments to accelerate market growth. Epilepsy is the most common neurological circumstance, and it is much more common in developing countries. The state affects a greater proportion of the population in developing countries such as India, China, and Brazil. Governments from around the world are stepping up their efforts to reduce the disease's impact and accelerate the availability of better treatment options.

 

Restraining Factors

The antiepileptic drugs market growth is hampered by a scarcity of antiepileptic drugs. Despite the rising prevalence of epilepsy, seizures, and other chronic conditions in developing countries, certain factors are impeding the growth of the global antiepileptic drug (AED) market. The sharp increase in medicine supply shortage and patients stockpiling these medications due to a drug shortage in pharmacies are the major factors hampering market growth during the forecast period.   

 

Market Segmentation

By Drug Generation Insights

The second-generation segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global antiepileptic drugs (AED) market during the forecast period.

Based on the drug generation, the global antiepileptic drugs (AED) market is classified into first generation, second generation, and third generation. Among these, the second generation segment is expected to hold the largest share of the antiepileptic drugs (AED) market during the forecast period. The second-generation drugs include Lyrica, Keppra, Banzel, and others. Lyrica is the market leader in epilepsy treatment and has the largest market share.
