Schizophrenia Market is projected to reach USD 7.2 Billion in 2018 and expected to register a 2.5% CAGR during the forecast period. Schizophrenia is a long-term mental disorder involving a breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior. Although the course of schizophrenia varies among individuals, it is typically persistent and can be both severe and disabling.
The primary factors driving the growth of the global schizophrenia market are rising cases of schizophrenia, a growing number of geriatric individuals, and increasing research and development in schizophrenia treatment. According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), schizophrenia is one of the top 15 leading causes of disability worldwide. According to the Schizophrenia and Related Disorders Alliance of America, schizophrenia can be found in approximately 1.1% of the world’s population, regardless of racial, ethnic, or economic background. However, stringent regulations around new product approvals and rising generic launches are hampering the growth of the global market.
