世界のオピオイド市場規模は2022年に212億米ドルに達しました。今後、IMARC Groupは、2028年には256億米ドルに達し、2022~2028年の成長率(CAGR)は3.19%になると予測しています。慢性疼痛疾患の罹患率の上昇、高齢者人口の増加、がん診断の増加、ヘルスケアサービスへのアクセスの改善、研究開発(R&D)の継続的な取り組み、消費者の意識の高まり、有利な政府規制などは、市場を推進する主な要因の一部です。
麻薬としても知られるオピオイドは、アヘン科のケシ植物に由来する、あるいは研究所で合成された、強力な鎮痛薬の一種です。これらの物質は、脳や脊髄にある特定の受容体(主にミューオピオイド受容体)に作用し、痛みを和らげ、多幸感を誘発します。オピオイドは、重度の疼痛を管理するためにヘルスケア専門家によって合法的に処方される処方オピオイドと、医師の監督なしに入手・使用されるヘロインのような非合法オピオイドに分類されます。最も一般的な処方オピオイドは、オキシコドン、ヒドロコドン、フェンタニルなどです。
がん関連疼痛や筋骨格系障害などの慢性疼痛疾患の蔓延拡大は、重度かつ持続的な疼痛の管理のためにオピオイドの処方を必要とする主な促進要因です。これに加えて、高齢者が加齢に関連した病気や痛みを頻繁に経験することから、世界の人口動態の高齢化がオピオイド需要の増加に寄与しています。さらに、オピオイドは術後の疼痛管理によく使用されるため、世界の外科手術の急増がオピオイドの需要を押し上げ、市場拡大に寄与しています。これに加えて、特に新興諸国ではがんの診断が増加しており、がん関連の疼痛管理にオピオイドを採用する動きが加速しています。さらに、新興市場ではヘルスケアサービスへのアクセスが向上しているため、医療提供者が疼痛管理のニーズに対応するためにオピオイドの処方率が上昇しており、市場の成長を後押ししています。
慢性疼痛の増加
世界中で慢性疼痛が増加していることは、オピオイド市場の成長を促す重要な要因です。慢性疼痛は、関節炎、腰痛、神経障害などの症状から生じることが多く、数百万人が罹患しており、効果的な疼痛管理ソリューションが必要とされています。オピオイドは激痛を和らげる効能があるため、ヘルスケア専門医によって広く処方されています。これと同時に、人口が高齢化し平均寿命が延びるにつれて、慢性疼痛の発生率も増加し、オピオイドの需要を押し上げると予想されています。これに加え、疼痛関連疾患の診断と認知度の向上が、製薬企業による研究開発(R&D)への投資を促し、安全性プロファイルを強化した革新的なオピオイド製剤の創出を促し、市場の拡大をさらに促進しています。
人口の高齢化
高齢化社会への世界の人口動態の変化も、オピオイド市場の主要な促進要因の一つです。高齢者は、変性性関節疾患やがんなど、加齢に関連した疾患を経験することが多く、慢性疼痛の事例が増加するため、オピオイドなどの疼痛管理オプションに対する需要が高まっています。オピオイドは、その潜在的な副作用やリスクにもかかわらず、この層における中等度から重度の疼痛管理によく処方される選択肢であり続けています。ヘルスケア提供者は、他の疼痛管理戦略が不十分であることが判明した場合、オピオイドに頼ることが多いです。このような持続的な需要がオピオイド市場を強化しており、製薬会社は高齢化社会特有のニーズに対応するために新しい製剤や市場開拓方法を開発しています。
世界のがん罹患率の上昇
特に新興市場におけるがん罹患率の増加が、オピオイド需要の急増に寄与しています。がんは一般的な症状として激しい疼痛を示すことが多く、オピオイドはがん疼痛管理の要となっています。がんの罹患率が世界的に上昇を続ける中、効果的な疼痛緩和手段に対する需要も増加し、オピオイド市場の成長に拍車をかけています。さらに、ヘルスケアサービスへのアクセスが向上したことで、がんの診断と治療が早期に行われるようになり、疼痛管理にオピオイドを使用する必要性が高まっています。製薬企業は、がん患者特有の疼痛プロファイルに対応するよう設計された特殊なオピオイド製剤を開発することでこの需要に応えており、がん治療におけるオピオイドの役割はさらに強固なものとなり、市場拡大の原動力となっています。
The global opioids market size reached US$ 21.2 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 25.6 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.19% during 2022-2028. The rising incidence of chronic pain conditions, expanding elderly population, increase in cancer diagnoses, improved access to healthcare services, ongoing research and development (R&D) efforts, escalating consumer awareness, and favorable government regulations are some of the major factors propelling the market.
Opioids, also known as narcotics, are a class of powerful pain-relieving medications derived from the opium poppy plant or synthesized in laboratories. These substances act on specific receptors in the brain and spinal cord, primarily the mu-opioid receptors, to alleviate pain and induce a sense of euphoria. Opioids can be classified into two main categories including, prescription opioids, which are legally prescribed by healthcare professionals to manage severe pain, and illicit opioids like heroin, which are obtained and used without medical supervision. The most common prescription opioids include oxycodone, hydrocodone, and fentanyl.
The expanding prevalence of chronic pain conditions, including cancer-related pain and musculoskeletal disorders, is a key driving factor necessitating the prescription of opioids for the management of severe and persistent pain. In addition to this, the global demographic shift towards an aging population is contributing to the increasing demand for opioids, as elderly individuals frequently experience age-related ailments and pain. Moreover, opioids are commonly used in post-operative pain management, consequently the significant surge in surgical procedures worldwide is boosting the demand for these medications, thereby aiding in market expansion. Besides this, the increase in cancer diagnoses, especially in developing countries, is fueling the adoption of opioids to manage cancer-related pain. Furthermore, improved access to healthcare services in emerging markets is leading to higher prescription rates for opioids as healthcare providers aim to address pain management needs, thus impelling the market growth.
Increasing prevalence of chronic pain
The escalating prevalence of chronic pain across the globe represents a significant growth-inducing driver of the opioids market. Chronic pain, often resulting from conditions such as arthritis, back problems, or neuropathic disorders, affects millions of individuals, necessitating effective pain management solutions. Opioids are widely prescribed by healthcare practitioners due to their potency in alleviating severe pain. Concurrent with this, as the population ages and life expectancy rises, the incidence of chronic pain is also expected to grow, propelling the demand for opioids. Besides this, improved diagnosis and awareness of pain-related disorders are prompting pharmaceutical companies to invest in research and development (R&D) to create innovative opioid formulations with enhanced safety profiles, further driving the market's expansion.
Aging population
The global demographic shift toward an aging population is another key driver of the opioids market. Elderly individuals often experience age-related ailments, including degenerative joint diseases and cancer, leading to increased instances of chronic pain, which, in turn, is fueling the demand for pain management options, such as opioids. Opioids, despite their potential side effects and risks, remain a commonly prescribed option for managing moderate to severe pain in this demographic. Healthcare providers often resort to opioids when other pain management strategies prove inadequate. This sustained demand has strengthened the opioid market, as pharmaceutical companies develop new formulations and delivery methods to cater to the specific needs of the aging population.
Rising cancer rates across the globe
The increasing incidence of cancer diagnoses, particularly in emerging markets, is contributing to the surging demand for opioids. Cancer often presents severe pain as a common symptom, and opioids are a cornerstone of cancer pain management. As cancer rates continue to rise globally, so does the demand for effective pain relief measures, fueling the opioid market's growth. Moreover, improved access to healthcare services is leading to earlier cancer diagnosis and treatment, necessitating the use of opioids for pain management. Pharmaceutical companies are responding to this demand by developing specialized opioid formulations designed to cater to the unique pain profiles of cancer patients, further solidifying the role of opioids in cancer care and driving market expansion.
