Growth Factors

Product launches across the globe, approval of new drugs, and increased research and development activities are likely to drive the market.

An increase in awareness about mental health among the general population and governments is expected to propel the ADHD market. The rising number of people suffering from a host of mental health disorders, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, has caught the attention of governments around the world, forcing them to take necessary steps to address this condition. In 2016, the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services awarded up to USD 54 million to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) for the next four years to address the needs of individuals with serious mental illnesses.

Key Market Trends

Stimulant Drug Type Segment is Expected to Projected Significant Growth Over the Forecast Period.

The stimulant segment dominated the ADHD market and is expected to continue to do so throughout the forecast period. This is due to the high demand for these drugs, which stems from their efficacy in treating symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, ongoing clinical trials, and government support for the use of stimulants in the treatment of mental health disorders. Stimulant drugs include Amphetamine, Methylphenidate, Lisdexamfetamine, and Dexmethylphenidate.

Amphetamines (e.g., Adderall) and methylphenidate (e.g., Ritalin and Concerta) are common stimulant medications prescribed to children, adolescents, and adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The study titled "A cognitive neuroscience review of the etiology of ADHD," published by the Association of Child and Adolescent Mental Health in January 2022, describe that stimulant works quickly, and there is also a reduction in overall impulsivity and ADHD symptoms in two hours. It also reported that stimulants are the most effective treatment for ADHD patients to keep them calm and focused. Thus the effectiveness of the stimulant drug in the management of ADHD boosts the segment growth over the forecast period.

Furthermore, a rise in clinical studies to evaluate the effectiveness of the stimulant drug in ADHD treatment is anticipated to drive the segment over the forecast period. For instance, as per the ClinicalTrial.gov updates on July 2021, the study titled "A Pivotal Efficacy Trial to Evaluate HLD200 (methylphenidate) in Children With ADHD in a Classroom Setting" under the development phase III by Ironshore Pharmaceuticals and Development, Inc. Hence, the increase in the number of drug development will be expected to increase in the accessibility of ADHD therapeutics and thus anticipated to boost the segment growth.

Moreover, the approval and commercialization of new drugs by market players are also expected to play a crucial role in driving market growth over the coming years. For instance, in March 2021, Azstarys (KemPharma) received Food and Drug Administration approval for a central nervous system stimulant for the treatment of ADHD. It is one of the first drugs with the combination of dexmethylphenidate and serdexmethylphenidate. Such approvals are propelling the growth of the market segment.

Thus, the aforementioned factors are likely to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact 

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe and the World Health Organization had declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.

COVID-19 has affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting production and demand of drugs and vaccines, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries, such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, U.A.E., Egypt, and others, faced problems with regard to the transportation of drugs and vaccines from one place to another. Following the outbreak of COVID-19 in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe and the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency. According to the World Health Organization’s report, manifestation of coronavirus (COVID-19) has resulted in more than 622,389,418 confirmed cases infected individuals worldwide as of 18 October, 2022.

Furthermore, psychological behavior in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) patients has worsen due to COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, according to the study published in the child and adolescent health, in THE LANCET journal, on April 17, 2020, it was found that during COVID-19 pandemic, the patients suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have become more vulnerable due to the stress caused by the pandemic. Thus due to COVID-19 has negatively impacted the patients of ADHD.
